No it’s a liquid and is used with a syringe. Thanks.

Thats a tough one then... Just an idea... you could put the pellet at the end of the syringe and when your turtle opens his mouth for the pellet, the syringe will go into his mouth and you can put in the medicine.

Good idea, but I did it! Some reason this time she just opened. Now she’s got to get used to it every day. And I'm still wondering if she can last the night out? Thanks anyway, use that in the future.

Thats great! And yes, she will be able to last the night out. The term many people use is 'dry docking'. You might want to put some blankets out where you are going to be having her.

Great Thanks. I put some blankets in a 20 gallon long tank and covered the sides she has a little basking rock and a side with more blankets to burrow in. She has to stay in there for a month only to come out to eat I feel so bad for her she hates it in there. Tommorw I’m going to get her a bigger Rubbermaid container so she can have more room. And get a heat blanket for under the blankets or tank. Thanks so much for your help.
