-mango

Tonight the crabbies are getting:
Diced up mango
Broccoli
Shredded carrot
Semi dehydrated pineapple (I thought it was fully dried but then it started going brown, they really like it semi dry for some reason )
Mushy mushy rasberries
Equally mushy blueberries
Turkey, some of it soaked in rasberry juice (oops)
Dried plankton
And a big slab of coconut for each tank! The straw/blue tank gets a spoonful of kilimanjaros kibbles:vitafoods, post molt thought because Betelgeuse just molted
And as always, their refilled dry food/treat bowl
Yummy! I'm jealous, I had KD

We just started trying diff foods other than the dried hermit crab food. No one touched the frozen mango, fresh banana, or freeze dried shrimp. But I just put in some fresh blueberries and uncooked oatmeal and I have a crab that has been sitting there for about 15 minutes. Two others are circling. Lol

How can I prepare salmon for my hermit crabs. I don't eat fish and not sure if I cook it or not, if so how. Thanks.

[CrabbyMom33]

They can eat it raw or cooked. I prefer to cook mine and usually use the microwave for what I cook for the crabs. If I get an entire extra piece for the crabs to cook and freeze I'll put it in a separate baking dish with a little olive oil in the dish first and bake it in the oven at the same time as the food for the family, just without seasoning.
