Cinnamon: Unsafe?

Post by JoeHermits » Thu Jun 13, 2019 6:48 am

So at one point I’d believed that cinnamon was on the unsafe/unpopular list, however it is no longer listed there.

Is there a reason for this? Was there a food trial I missed? I do realize it’s not on the safe list, either.

Cinnamon should ideally be avoided, it is used as an insect repellent in some cases, and I haven't heard of anyone feeding it to their crabs either.

Right, which is why I’m trying to figure out why it was removed from the Unsafe and Unpopular Food List.

Oh, thanks! I never saw that.

Did you mean to link me to my own post?

😆I read the second post about the fruit mix that had cinnamon and some kind of berry, and the Christmas tree pictures. Could I let my crabs go on a fake Christmas tree? We usually don’t get real ones because of allergies.
I have had pets in the past, but my family can’t have any furry or feathered ones due to allergies. I usually try my best to help and currently trying to set up a crabitat. I also try to treat others with Love!❤️
