Tonight they had seaweed special, cooked baby carrots, sesame seeds, eggshells, roasted red and green peppers and blood worms. Oh, and popcorn treat. Of course Brutus spent half the day chewing on his oak branch.

I was feeling remarkably lazy and uninspired today so my gang got shredded sweet potato, shredded coconut and peanut butter. They always also have a shell of worm castings and a shell of dried flowers.

I've ordered a "starter amount" of red worms, so I will eventually be able to have my own "home grown" castings, it will also help me make better use of discarded veggies/newspaper and give me a constant food source for my other critters!!

Tonight's menu:
Ingredients:
pasta
any sort of oil (I used extra virgin red palm oil)
honey
cuttlebone (optional)

Directions:
Cook the pasta until it's soft enough for crabbies to nibble on and then drain. DRENCH in honey to make it more appetizing and then put the oil on top. Then lightly coat with cuttlebone for calcium.

I just put this food in like 10 min. ago and Captain is already chowing down!

And funny story behind this dish... I was e-mailing my bf and I went away to fix crab food without telling him and when I came back he asked where I went and I told him I was making the crabs dinner so he asked what it was and I told him and his reply was "Ok cool..."

He doesn't get it I guess.

Kind of blah tonight-a grape tomato, some baby spinach, a green bean, and a baby carrot. They seemed to like most of those ingredients...

I didn't have much time tonight, so...
Pineapple rolled in flaxseed with organic dried cranberries and apple. I think they'll like it, simple as it is.

I felt tired this morning, so they just got some lettuce, turkey, peanuts and freeze dried brine shrimp. In another dish was honey mixed with crushed egg shell.

Chicken still on the bone, shredded wheat, a cherry tomato cut in half, lettuce and some honey and egg shells again.
