According to the information sheets it's just limestone. They are little round balls
I have a grape vine as the tortoises can eat young leaves of it. I don't use any supplement for them and the grapes are fine to eat:0) not that they are big enough to really enjoy.
If you think in the wild nobody screens calcium there.
