Should be ok if it has no preservatives or additives, including salt or sugar. I have had success with canned baker's apple (pie-apple) used for cooking. It is 100% fruit & nothing else. If you can't find that, just make sure you don't get fruit in syrup. Juice is better.

Does any canned tuna work?

Sounds fine if no added salt or preservatives/additives. Look for tuna in plain springwater or oil. Sometimes if you cook it a little it brings out the smell and attracts them better too

I like your avatar, sandlercd_22! It looks like he's saying what you're posting. Look at Hunter and imagine him saying "Does any canned tuna work?"

Hey folks...forgive the ignorance...but what's up with Julia Crab's site (Epicurean Crab)? I've not been able to access it or the safe foods list...while we're on the subject of din-din! =)

BTW...my babes had dried krill, baby shrimp, tubifex (sp?) worms, coconut, sweat potato, carrot, crushed nuts, some crushed sand dollar/cuttlebone, and rosehips (THEY LOVE THESE!). Tonight was a dried food night...the humidity rehydrates the food perfectly and they tear into it. There were 4 crabs eating less than 2 hours after the food went in! =)

The safe food list was copied in this thread... you can see it here until the EH link is working again.

The crablets had:
1 shrimp in shell, with tail
1 grape, cut into 8 peices
1 baby carrot, diced
1 shell of honey
slice of orange rind
ground sand dollar

so far, not one will go near the orange peel!

Special treat tonight...I threw in a deveined but still shell-on shrimp. I have tried shrimp in the past but the herms never touched it...today, however, they attacked it like piranahs to an unluck gringo swimmer! It was amazing!

Okay, they also had their staple dried protein - tubifex worms, baby shrimp, and bloodworms...throw in some crushed mixed nuts for fun. They had their staple dried plants...rosehips (crushed), coconut, banana, sweet potato and carrots. And some fresh food...celery, broccoli, and cherry tomato (all diced finely). Sprinkle all with a mix of pulverized sanddollar and cuttle bone.

So...nice spread, eh? Three different food dishes, quite the choices...and still one knuckle head was eating sand. What is wrong with them?!?!?! It's the public education system I tell you! =p

Todayâ€™s menu was meatloaf (ground beef, ground pork, egg, ketchup, cheese, bread crumbs, garlic) and FMR food.

Peanut butter and Zoomed hermit crab fruit salad. Was supposed to be sprinkled with NarNar's stuff, but the NaRnAR stuff got lost!

FMR is bad for hermit crabs. It has bad ingredients in it.

I have made a schedule thing so I can give them a balanced diet.
