Rep-cal pellets, juvenile vs. adult.

Hi there.
Is there any difference between the juvenile and adult rep-cal pellets other than size and shape?
Are they nutritionally the same?
I have the juvenile one so I can read the label, but the rep-cal site does not print the nutrition content to so I can't really compare. If you know if they are the same, or if you have a scan of the adult one's label, please do let me know.

I dont have a scan of it but I do have the adult formula. It says

Guaranteed Analysis:
Crude Protien(min)..16% Crude Fat(min)..1%
Crude Fiber(max)..18% Moisture (max)..12%

Ingredients
Ground Corn, Soy hulls, soybean meal, wheat germ, dried apple pomace, Calcium Carbonate, dicalcium phosphate, salt, ascorbic acid, choline cloride,dried mango,dried papaya, dried strawberry, vegatable oil, methionine supplement, vitamin E supplement, spiruline, ferrous sulfate, potassium cloride, zinc sulfate, zinc oxide, niacin, copper sulfate,D-calcium pantthenate, bioten, vitamin B12 supplement, vitemin A acetate, riboflavin supplement, pyridoxine hydrochloride, sodium selenite, thiamine mononitrate, D-activated animal sterol (source of vitamin D3), menadione dimethyl-pyrimidinol Bisulfate (source of vitiman K activity), Cobalt carbonate, inositol, ethylenediamine dihydriodide, folic acid, artificial color, natural flavor.

I can not promise that all that is spelt corectly but thats what it says on the back of my jar of adult
I give it to my iguana ocasionally to keep him used to it so that when I have to go away theres something easy for my family to make to feed him.

Wow thanks!!!! Must have took you a long time to type that out and I really appreciate it.
The reason I ask is that Liv Tyler doesn't go for the pellets directly, but rather mashed and spread on the leaves. So if they are really the same, then it would be a lot cheaper for me to get the pellets in adult form instead as the size wouldn't matter. I'll go ahead and compare now. Thanks!
