Default Strawberry Crab with eggs

Hi guys while re-scaping my tank afew days ago. I noticed my strawberry is now pregnant with eggs I only got 1 crab inside are the eggs fertile? Can they store sperm from before? I wish to breed it of possible but she likes to hide alot . Wish to hear from anyone with success story to share & guide me on this.

hi Bro ,

it may not be easy to breed crustaceans, even if it hatches , the fries/ larva are likely to be eaten or filtered away.

strawberry crabs are cute !

Don't think they can fertilize themselves like snail does. I think it's probably like how doctor shrimp always has eggs, but they never hatch?
