HCA: Hermit Crab Association

A scrambled egg cooked in extra virgin olive oil, with a little bit of eggshell, mineral supplement, and HCP's Surf 'n Turf mixed in. Quite curious to see how it will be received.

Tonight is favorite night! ^^ I just noticed I had all there favorites in the garden/fridge. Haha....creative right?

Meemo: Rose Petals
Koopa: Basil
Simba: Strawberries
Nikki: Egg Shell
Pearl: Carrots

Tonight they're having:

-Crabby Jello
-Blueberries with a carrot purée sauce on top
-Fresh cantaloupe
-Fresh watermelon
-VitaFoods: Protein
-everything dusted with pure calcium carbonate to make it good for the exoskeleton

Among other things... SMELLY SARDINE!!!
This is the first time I'm trying it out on them and I'm kind of hoping they don't like it.

My crabs will be eating egg shell and oatmeal for the next 10 days so I decided to make them a feast.

I have diced tomato with the seeds mixed in (they love the seeds haha) salted celery sticks, sliced carrots, egg shells, chopped up celery leaves and grilled pork. Hopefully they can get there fill of different foods before they go into the same old same old egg shell and oats. Poor crabs. Thats like having pizza for 10 days straight for breakfast lunch and dinner. And I hate pizza. :roll:

No pic for tonight, but the crabs are having:

-Pinkie Mouse (as suggested by HermitCrazy )
-Kilimanjaro's Kibbles: Caribbean Cabana
-Kilimanjaro's Kibbles: Chef's Trash
-Organic Peanut Butter
-Crabby Jello

Fresh Mango Sprinkled With Kilimanjaro's Kibbles Dry Vitafoods: Protein!

mine get a fresh fig with HCP's mineral supplement and mysis shrimp.

for some reason they turn their antennae up at regular shrimp, but mysis shrimp? it's a favorite. i sat around and watched my guys meticulously pick every shrimp off the food...i swear i'm going to have to start soaking them in vitamins or something.

Pinkie Mouse

For real?

Yeah! Surprisingly, they LOVED it... as in, there was no trace of it this morning... I even looked in all of their favorite hiding spots!

I would definitely recommend it. It gives them a natural source of protein, and it's something that would well-replicate what they may find in the wild.

Thanks so much HermitCrazy for referring this one to me! I love trying new stuff with my herms.



Tonight, they're having a lazy meal. Simply a slice of watermelon, organic blue corn tortilla chips, and VitaFoods: Supreme Health.

A mix of Kilimanjaro's Kibbles Sick food mixed with powdered peanuts and almonds mixed with apple cider vinegar! Yummy!

^:hlol:

Tonight they're having coconut, simply.

Mine are having coconut tonight too. I cracked open a new coconut today and now they have little coco huts to munch on too.

Also, they are having broccoli and free-dried krill, with pineapple on the side.
