Got one in my hotel.  What is the best way for her to survive.  Release or keep in pot until she hardens?

After a few hours they can pretty much fend on their own.  If its a "buckram" (paper shell) let it go.  Or, fry that baby up. :-) If its super soft you can keep it in a bucket of water for a couple hours.  If its super soft, eels or even mini's will tear it apart.  Or, fry it up...  Wink

Buy her some jewelry. That should keep her around for a while.

Fry it up.

I know they taste good, but I couldn't do it.  I kept her in the trap and she brought me a few nice males.  When she hardened up, I let her go.
