Whole Cornish Female Crabs
Cornish Female crabs (also referred to as hens by the local fisherman and shellfish merchants) are generally smaller than the male crabs (which are called cock crabs by the locals). We offer 800g-1.1kg and 1.1-1.4kg crabs as the total meat yield will be about 20-25% of the crab’s mass. So it doesn’t make sense picking smaller hen crabs as there is very little meat on them.
Cook live crabs immediately on delivery and eat within three days. Only strong crabs will be despatched live. However, we cannot guarantee survival and they are sent at the customer’s own risk. Any crabs that don’t arrive live are still safe to cook and consume. When ordering cooked crabs store at 0-5°C and consume within two days. If freezing, please follow your freezer manufacturer’s instructions. All items are sold as approximate and pre-cooked weight, some cook loss will occur.
Weather, tides, seasonality and catch numbers can affect availability.

800g – 1.1kg Live or Cooked – One Person Serving
