softshell crab are called shedders, they molt their hardshell every few weeks, typically during a full moon. they are extremely soft, like a water balloon in texture, and can be handled safely. they are immensely flavorful, and can be eaten raw. like a seafood flavored jelly donut
i catch blue claw shedders every month i highly suggest thrm if you can get them fresh. good luck if you are on the east coast of the US though
