okay..finally i got my bag of mazuri and was wonderfing if they are suppose to be tiny little dark brown ball pellet or not. normally i get the food thats containerized with labels on them so i know what im buying but mazuri came in a reg clear bag that someone wrote maz fresh 1 lb. just curious cuz i know how ppl can make an errors often, especially when they are so busy.

My Mazuri comes exactly like yours blind44. I keep most of it in the freezer and keep the rest in a small container for feeding to Spot. He absolutely adores the stuff.

thanx spotsmama...=)

yeah....imma go buy me one of those plastic container type thingee and freeze most of them.

both my turts absoultly loved it. i did notice that my smaller res brownie had hard time eating it because mazari was just too hard to break/chew. i saw him giving up several time after trying so hard to eat it....=(

You might try scooping up some tank water and soaking them before you give them to the turts. That should mush them up a bit and make it easier for the baby.
