Zoo Med Tortoise Blocks

Hello,
If possible could someone please give me their opinion of these? Mine currently have limestone flour and nutrobal sprinkled on their weeds but I quite like the look of these for them tohave any time.

Thank you!

I brought one and it wasn't touched, I even tried breaking it up with no luck.

Thank you for your reply- maybe not worth the money then. They have cuttlefish in their outdoor and indoor enclosures but again just ignore it completely.

Never tried em but Calcium block's and the like can be ignored for month's, like cuttlefish take it or leave it thing with Tortoises. I don't see any harm in popping one of these block's in for the winter and leaving it there.

I got one, it got dirty, climbed on, walked over and I didn't like the smell it omitted so I binned it !!!!!
