Crushing shells

Post by Scarletfire » Wed Jan 29, 2020 9:37 pm

Quick question - I have a lot of natural shells that the crabs don't like. A lot. If I crush them for calcium, is it okay? I have a feeling it is.. but just want to confirm, and I don't know if others have done this.

You can! It's really hit or miss on if they want to eat them though. Usually, oyster shells go over better than the species we give them to wear.
