I did a google search on this product, and only found two websites that even listed Hermit Crab Yummies. http://www.buzzillions.com/reviews/ecto ... es-reviews
One is only reviews, and doesn't include a list of ingredients, nor does the one other website I found, which has a bad link when you click to "view more".

I did read the ingredients on the "Cricket Yummies" they offer (I would steer away from the Ectotherm Yummies, as they are meant for reptiles and do not address Hermit Crab needs), and Copper Sulfate is listed as a preservative, which is known to possibly be dangerous for hermit crabs due to their sensitivity to copper, and also due to Copper Sulfate being an ingredient in pesticides.

It sounds interesting (Didn't view the video, can't watch it here at work, sorry), but I'd steer clear without knowing what ingredients are in it.

:S Not sure about this reply?
But thanks CrabbyJo for taking the time to look up the information. I did a search too and couldn't find any ingredients either.
