What's on today's menu & recipe sharing

Just made some baby food for the crabs. Spinach, cucumber, carrots, blueberries, freeze-dried shrimp and a drop of honey. They're both walking away from it.

Basil leaves from the safe list, broccoli leaves, and bell peppers.

Made a crabby omelet last night (too much time on my hands, lol):

Quail eggs, dried mixed insect powder, dried hotpepper powder, spinach, and chard.

Nobody touched it, as far as I can tell, and it smells terrible now. :roll:

Tonight it's carrots, mushrooms, green beans and shrimp. Spirulina powder in a clam shell and some forage: calendula buds, clover, rose buds and kelp powder. I'm finding I like to hit all the major parts of my crabs' diet.

Here's one of my favorite recipes that my crabs seem to love.
Preheat your oven to 170 degrees F
Take a cup of cut up fresh fruit (can be a single kind or a mix) and put on a pan covered in wax paper but make sure the fruit isn't touching
Put in oven for 2 and a half hours or until the fruit is dry.
Take the dried fruit and put in a blender with a tablespoon of honey until the fruit is in tiny pieces and the honey is well mixed in.
Allow crabs to enjoy
This should give you about a weeks worth of food depending on how many crabs you have.
Please note that the coloring will be different depending on what fruit you use.

I'm thinking about making my own dehydrated fruit and vegetables by putting them in my oven for a couple of hours.

Go for it! Tips: leave the door cracked open, check up often. I like to cut mine into teeny bits, as this is a bit faster, but you gots to check on them more the smaller they are.
