DIY Hermit Crab Trail Mix

Make some healthy food mixes to easily store for your hermit crabs! Go to a grocery store that has bulk foods. Get a scoop of a variety of foods so that each trail mix will include unsweetened dried fruits, grains, unsalted nuts, seeds, and anything else that your crabs might like, such as dried vegetables. Chop the dried fruit into smaller pieces and sprinkle calcium powder over the chopped fruit. Make several different mixes, ensuring that each mix has a variety of foods from most or all of the food categories. Put each mix into a plastic container and attach a desiccate packet on the bottom of the lid with tape. Give your crabs a scoop of a food mix each day, rotating the mixes daily to ensure they receive a variety of nutrients in their diet.
