Yes, do let us know how your crabs like it! They may even like it dry too. We're all for finding new foods with plenty of nutrition and no preservatives!

The meat, does it say what 'type' of meat it contains? Ants, mealworms, bloodworms, etc?

Thank you for the update. :)
But come time for vacation or such, it is still good to have the dried foods because they do not seem to spoil as fast.
