Although there are small variations in the make and model depending on the manufacturer, all paintballs are biodegradable.

Paintballs, containing both their shell and fill, will swell and break down if left where they fall in nature, gradually melting away into water and Gelatin and harmlessly reentering the environment.

It all depends on the grade of the paint and the weather conditions. Usually, you can expect the paint to degrade within a two weeks. Though if you just have a case of paint laying on the ground, keep in mind it will take much longer.

Yes. Over time they become brittle or hard, or tough and gummy depending on conditions. Eventually they will completely decompose.

Even though a Baseball has many biodegradable materials in it, It still can take THOUSANDS of years to decompose.
