Frozen domestic soft shell crabs (Whale / 6 CRABS)

Soft shell crabs are blue crabs (Callinectus sapidus) that have shed their hard outer shell. More than 100 years ago, the watermen of historic Crisfield, Maryland introduced these crabs to the seafood industry. Handy Seafood, the nation’s oldest and largest soft shell crab processor, offers this unique delicacy fresh April through October and frozen year round.
