Not for redfooted Tort :/
I’m not sure this is a product good for usage in tortoises like rebooted tortoises as this product can not get wet. Im sure this works well for desert tortoises who have dry enclosures

Picky Turtle
I bought this product hoping that the scent would be enough to convince my turtle to eat it. Sadly after a couple of months she still has yet to try it. The product is priced right and the scent it gives off is actually nice, was a good purchase just not tempting enough for my picky eater.

A Disappointing Product
**1 out of 5 stars - Zoo Med Tortoise Banquet Block: A Disappointing Miss** As a loyal Zoo Med customer, I was excited to try the Tortoise Banquet Block, hoping to add some variety to my tortoises' diet. Unfortunately, this product turned out to be a major disappointment. None of my tortoises, despite their diverse preferences, showed any interest in this block. I tried placing the block in different areas of their enclosure, hoping to entice them, but to no avail. They simply ignored it, leaving me with a useless brick. I'm baffled by this product's lack of appeal, as Zoo Med is usually known for producing high-quality reptile products. I'm not sure if it's the block's composition or its presentation, but it's clearly not appetizing to my tortoises. I would not recommend this product to anyone. Save your money and find a more appealing option for your tortoises. **Overall rating:** 1 out of 5 stars

Break it apart a little bit
My sweet girl took to it right away. I broke it down to a much smaller piece since she's only 4 months old but I caught her munching on it today! Sprinkled the dust in her food from the break down 😊

Lasts for a long time
I bought this product for my Russian tortoise and it wasn’t his favorite but I’m giving this product a 5-star rating because I was surprised how long it lasted. If your reptile doesn’t find it appealing, I highly recommend placing something on it that they like, ex. Tomato’s, collard, etc.

I imagine most tortoises love it but not mine. He thinks is a piece of furniture and continually moves it around.
