As the title says, this thread is for sharing what you are feeding your crabs tonight (with pictures if you wish) to help inspire other members.
Tonight my hermies will be having in the fresh dishes:
Sweet potato, boiled a little until soft then cooled and mashed.
Plum tomato, whole fresh ones cut in half.
Blueberries, cut into small pieces since they drag it off a lot.
Courgette thinly sliced.
Rocket.
Chicken bone crushed for access to marrow.
In the dry food dishes:
Crushed krill.
Dried raspberry leaf.
Calcium crunch popcorn.
Staple foods:
Cuttlebone.
Oyster shell grit.
Worm castings (scattered over the substrate).
Oak leaves.
