What is the difference between soft and hard shell crabs?
They
are the same species. A soft-shell crab is one that has just
discarded its shell. Crabs which have just shed their shell
hide in rocks or bury themselves in sand and mud to escape
predators. They emerge after the new shell hardens, a quick
process.
