Yes, its small candy-colored pellets, like almost all the tortoise pellets are.
I've been offering it to my sulcata hatchling twice a week. I've been giving it a soak in a little bit of water to moisten it, then adding my calcium + d3 supplement to it. I take the leftover water and dump it in their water dish.
The little one goes NUTS over it, was curious if its ok to bump up to more often feeding this? ..or am I doing ok as a treat, or if I should shelve it. Regular diet has been weeds and grass from outside.
