Loose leaf tea leaves

[AndyCrabby]

Would these be safe to feed my crabs. They're caffeine free and organic. I use them for my tea and they are just steeped in boiled water. I feel like it would give the leaves a second purpose if I could feed it to my crabs after I was done using them in my tea. My concern is the water I steep them in since I'm not using their dechlorinated water.Thank you.

I would play it safe and say no, but that is me.

The other day @Wodesorel said that some people give their crabs tea. So, some people might say yes. To each's own!

(I would personally put them in my compost!)

The heating would get rid of chlorine and the slightly acidic nature of the tea will break down chloramine so that would not be a worry so long as the flowers inside are crab safe. It probably isn't much different than the wo-pourri I used to sell. I see calendula flowers which the crabs do enjoy!

I feed my crabs chamomile flowers all the time, and they really enjoy that.

You could also try soaking them in dechlorinated water and giving them a good rinse. That should probably remove anything nasty, as well.
