Medium size hermit crab shells

Anyone know where to buy medium sized crab shells? I've searched high and low locally to try and find the shells I need with no success. I need shells with about a half inch opening I guess. I know it's not that big of a deal if I lose them but I do like my hermit crabs and would like to have the right shells to keep them. Is there a scale that someone has come up with on age compared to shell size? Or anyone know a place where they have shells for sale online? Or do I need to buy 100 at a time and hope for the best

I used snail shells and my hermit loves them too.



Yeah I bought some live rock and they had shells in the bottom of the tank that they gave me but they were turbo shells and they were too big. Do u mean nassaurius shells?

I bought a bag of shells at Michael's craft store. They're obviously marketed for craft projects, but it's a nice assortment of natural shells and sells for like $3.00 for bag of probably 50 shells. I boiled them to make sure they're safe and I've had good results.
