Is this what you are talking about?

If so, I think you are fine. Maybe more of a treat rather than the sole diet.

And yes they can eat it.

It can't be any harder then cracked corn or pellets.Remember all birds need grit(oyster shells)to help break down their food.

Oyster shells are not grit. They are used for calcium. Grit is small stones and sand.
