Well, for the most part. I have stuff on order (I need more crab food like I need another hole in my head lol)
When my new containers arrive I have this stuff to go through.

That is exactly what an earth tone version of my eyeshadow and blush collection would look like

those containers are so cool. I already went overboard with my makeup phase, i can't for my crabbing phase. So thanks for posting yours. That way i get to fantasiiiiize. Almost as good as having the real thing. Almost!
Crabbers unite!!!
ETA: btw.. How do you even begin to decide what to feed? How many different things do you offer at a time?

I make sure I have about...4-5 random proteins, a few treats, my strawberry color enhancer and something completely random out of everything. Today they got marigold petals. I like to give them a smorgasbord. They deserve to eat well as much as I creep them out staring at them. Lol

You certainly do have quite the hermit crab food collection.

Looks so much nicer than my food bin! I'd love to see how you store your frozen crabby foods (if you have them). I'd also love to hear exactly what foods you have.

I don't have frozen food (yet lol) I will give you a full list in a little bit. Had a seizure followed by instant severe migraine so I am not getting up off my fat butt yet. I had so much fun putting everything together last night.

I wonder if all us crab people are migraineurs? Sorry I can relate.
I got some of the frozen fish foods; one was krill based with spirulina, etc. Dear God, the smell! Needless to say, they liked it. Expensive, though.
I also just got the Repassy (hermit Crab) Beach Buffet that you make into a gel; this is going to be their new go-to. You can keep a few pieces in the fridge and freeze the rest. My favorite new discovery. This morning they had "licked" the plate.

Kelly, as your friend and fellow crabber, I must insist you stop being such a food hoarder.

Or you need to get more crabs so they eat all that up quicker.

I don't have room for more. Full house. I have to be a food hoarder because the hcp keeps coming out with new seasonal stuff.
