I am in the middle of trying to develop a breeding program for the Malawi
Blue Crab (Potamonautes orbitospinus). I currently have a few crabs breeding
right now but could always use some more. If anyone knows where I can get my
hands on these babies in Canada please let me know.

Hi I had a few of these wild crabs a few weeks ago, and I can get more
if i needed them, the only problem is that i am based in the UK.

I would be interested in hearing more about your breeding program and
also details of how to breed them.

All the best

Depending on how many & what the price is I may be willing to pay for
shipping. The breeding program is still in its early stages just two
batches so far so any details would be premature.

I import directly from Malawi so it would be a case of how many do you
want! the last ones that we had sold for around £9.00 GBP each, I have
looked at shipping costs in the past to the US from the UK and they are
horrendously high so I would imagine shipping to Canada would be the same.

Send me you details to my email and we could talk more.
