My Weekly Menu!
Posted: Sat Sep 30, 2017 11:03 am
I know! There's a sticky/topic for today's menu. I felt this was too long to post there and I didn't want to overwhelm anyone or that topic... As I said to someone else, we don't have any health stores around here nor do I have the time to prepare foods. I just buy pre-mixed diets and kinda make my own from them. Feel free to make suggestions!
* Most of this is organic. I just left the words out. I also listed each diet, their ingredients, & where bought if anyone is interested!
HHS = The Happy Hermit Supply
HCG = Hermit Crab Garden
* Containers with multiple diets are mixed together for easier storage.
* They get fed on Monday's, Wednesday's, Friday's, & Sunday's with the following diets… (Yes!, all diets/containers in each day are offered. They're in separate containers so I can change their diet around if need be.)
