Organic popcorn appears to be one of the top favourites here... ALL pieces of it in the dish gets cleared within two days.

Re: Supplies for Aussies Thread
Hi Mim, glad that your hermies love our hermie food, and thank you for introducing me to this great website - this is a truly amazing collection of resource and knowledge on hermie crab care
I would like to clarify first - i am a PhD student in Biology and I love hermie crabs, but my research topic is not on hermie crabs (sorry if i have confused you Wai). I wish it is, but this is not a perfect world I hope i can contribute my 2 cents to this forum.
You are right on the spot there Wai, hermies love popped grains. As long as they are air puffed (not oily), hermie love it. I have tried puffed corn, millet, and rice and they are all good
