When our grandaughter's first one died, our son was at the beach at the time. So our daughter asked him to bring home another one. Dang thing died the same day..we were all at my parents for a cookout the day he brought the crab home and gave it to her there. My granddaughter didn't seem that upset. When we asked her why, she replied "well, I didn't know him that long."
