Re: What's on today's menu & recipe sharing
Tonight I tried some things for the first time, asparagus, and freeze dried fruit!
I didn't know fruit could be freeze dried They're these little cheap snack baggies by Disney called 'Fruit Crisps' And apparently they're 100% fruit, no presevatives, no sugar They kind of feel like a sponge. I gave the hermies pineapple, strawberry and banana tonight
They also got cucumber, carrot, coconut, calcium powder (mostly powdered eggshells, oyster shell and cuttlebone) Spirinula powder, bladderwrack flakes, and Caribbean Cabana and Vitafoods-post molt by Kilimanjaro They LOVE his stuff! And some mealworms again, because they were a huge hit before as well!
(I wimped out, fortunately for the crabs, some mealies had died and they got those ones on the search for a small deep container for mealies! )

Tonight the crabby "kids" and I are having stir fry.
Straw mushrooms, baby carrots, water chestnuts and beef. Theirs is getting some cuttlebone instead of rice noodles.
These are some new foods for them - hope they like it!

New favorite! Avocado and bloodworms... Not my cup of tea! But they cleaned the dish <3
Tonight it's bloodworms, and honey drizzled krill. Hope they enjoy it, though I think I can hear them attacking the dish already, lol!

Re: What's on today's menu & recipe sharing
I got my hands on some maple bark and leaves and they had a blast with them
So, maple goodies, dried peppers, strawberry and pineapple, pumpkin and sunflower seeds, algae powder, spirinula powder and some calcium stuff and of course their nightly bowl of mealworms (which they clean out every night)

Mine LOVED the hachiya type. They are really hard to find outside of the winter season though!

Tonight it's just applesauce to see how they like it. But last night was carrots, peas and pea pods, and broccoli.

I didn't know they could have peppers. Darn we just had some peppers the other day but used them all!

Red, yellow, & orange bell pepper. Boiled whole eggshell (they love to peel off the inner membrane), baby carrots, & Surf n Turf. I put some Tilapia in my tank recently and even though there were plenty to go around I watched a tug of war match for one tasty filet. Definitely a hot item.

Re: What's on today's menu & recipe sharing
Turnip sprouts from thinning out the garden today. There was a colander full of them, so I rinsed them and put them on top of the moss pit for the PPs. They are going insanely bonkers for them! There must be fifteen crabs trying to eat in the same spot. It's either the sprouts or the location, can't tell which.

Re: What's on today's menu & recipe sharing
Been feeding a ton of flowers lately (along with everything else). Tonight they got fresh apples, fresh kale, walnuts, fresh fish, coconut, bee pollen, deer meat, THCP toast, lilac flowers, wild rose flowers, crab apple flowers, dandelion flowers, and honeysuckle flowers/leaves/wood. Some stuff is in the dish, but I placed most of the flowers and nuts in different locations in the tank. I like to make them sniff out all the different stuff. And it's fun to watch how "excited" they get when they find a treat!
