I must say I never imagined they could be so finicky or that it would be such a challenge to feed the Hermit crabs!!!! I'm baffled.

They did at least 'taste' the baby food mix of apple/mango/kiwi.

Today my crabs get a little taste of spring! They get Tulip petals soaked on salt water with a drizzle of honey. My crabs LOVE tulips. :D I may add their favorite side dish...... almonds!

Banana, salmon, Sweet potato, Egg shell, mango, and strawberry. I guess I've been doing something right since my purple pinchers came up and both are turning blue. They both have just a little red on the inside of their legs and then the rest is all blue. They use to be a gray color.

"Crab" butter and it seems to be a hit

"crab" butter is a homemade peanut butter that I made. It includes peanuts, honey, oats, a bit of de chlorinated water and a dash of sea salt
