I buy the blue crabs from the grocery store, break it in half then cut the half in half. I also cut off all the legs. I keep expecting her to eat like cheech and chong which are total pigs. She just picks at her food. But when I gave her the crab she totally stuffed herself. Her tummy is round and lumpy right now. :D I took the rest of the crab out and put it in the refigerator for tomorrow. This seems to be her favorite so far. I went to the grocery store this morning and got some more. When I get home I can take pictures of how I cut it up if you like. :D 3 crabs usually last me about a month. I don't feed it to them every day. 3 crabs = 12 large pieces. I cut them then freeze them until I feed.

No problem. :( Thought I was going to be playing with my new camera tonight. You just busted my bubble. Oh well, maybe I will take fish pictures instead. :D
