These decorative crabs make a great addition to your nautical theme.
Lifelike Maryland blue crab replicas look great hanging on the wall of
your home, restaurant, or business. Hang these plastic crab ornaments
with some fishnet and seashells, or place them with other beach decor.
Choose from natural blue (live) or red "steamed" crabs that look like they
just came from a crab house! They are painted to look just like Maryland
blue crabs, from the claws to the underside. Each crab ornament comes
with an attached wall hanger. Please note these are not toy crabs - they
are hard, ornamental crabs with pointed edges (just like a real crab).
They're made for displays, crafts, and nautical themes.
Note: The size is the measurement across the outside of the legs, not the
body of the crab.
BLUE CRAB FACTS:
The blue crab is found in the waters of the western Atlantic
Ocean, the Pacific Coast of Central America, and the Gulf of
Mexico. It is the Maryland State Crustacean and is very
popular for eating. "Hard crabs" can be found in many crab
houses along the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland and Virginia.
A male blue crab is called a "Jimmy". He has a long, narrow, "T"
shaped apron and prominent blue-tipped claws.
An immature female blue crab is known as a "Sally" or "She-
Crab". She is easily identified as having an inverted "V" or
triangular shaped apron. Her claws are red-tipped.
A mature (adult) female blue crab is called a "Sook" to
watermen - she is identified as having an inverted "U" or bell-
shaped apron and also has red-tipped claws.
The origin of the blue crab hue stems from a number of
pigments in their shell, including alpha-crustacyanin, which
interacts with a red pigment, astaxanthin, to form a greenish-
blue coloration. When the crab is cooked, the alpha-
crustacyanin breaks down, leaving only the astaxanthin, which
turns the crab red-orange.
