Highlighted Reviews

— Paula

"My painted turtle Jupiter loves these; they are his go-to evening treat. I think they smell awful but he loves them!!"

— zaid

"The bottle was damaged in shipment and contained mostly powered and broken worms. Not sure why something like this wasn’t wrapped separately. The box was filled with two large bags of dog food and then that throw onto the bottoms under it all. Very disappointed"

Bottom Line

The treat itself is well-liked, particularly by painted turtles. However, the packaging issues and the messiness of the 'shake' are significant downsides that buyers should be aware of.
