My boys go bonkers over chicken cold-cuts. I just put some in, and both are eating it already!

Depends on which crab of mine:) Clare will hoard walnuts. Mike loves coconut. Chime and Kelp love raw shrimp. And Mini Pinch really loves a bit of everything;)

Lol that's so funny how each of them like specific things, like we wouldn't think they'd have their own tastes and personalities but they're so different from one another it's like they're tiny, shelled people

They like popcorn as a treat, but their all time favorite is Hermit Crab Kibble from The Hermit Crab Patch. It's a staple and healthy food for them

Are you talking about chicken deli meat that you would get for sandwiches? Any processed, brined or smoked meats really aren't good for the crabs.
