Uros have shockingly strong jaws. If your uro is an adult with healthy teeth, he can likely crunch the dry lentils like popcorn. Some people do grind or soak/sprout lentils. I don't bother. Keep in mind, don't feed large amounts of dry foods unless he's also eating plenty of greens and veggies (not for you specifically, just a general caveat).
