I have kept crabs in a Home Depot bucket for 4 or 5 days before. Like Bloocrab mentioned its important to have no water as the water will get toxic with their waste in less than a day and quickly kill the lot of them. Last month I actually forgot a bucket of crabs I had shaded in the wood shed for almost a week and was shocked to find nearly all of them were still alive. If you know anyone with chickens, they love crushed little crabs (mine get a special treat every time I go togging)
