Recently at my local supermarket, I saw they sold canned chicken. I was Wondering, Would this be safe for rocket to have as a "Monthly" Snack? Or should i just play it Safe and not even attempt to?
the Chicken is Basically boiled but Mushed up, Sort of like Tuna.

They love chicken!! I know that for sure...It was my mistake before I learn more about turtles.

Be careful not to give him too often or he might have pyramiding problem like mine :(

Look at the ingredients. Does it have a lot of salt and additives?
