Zoo Med Tortoise Block

Overview

Zoo Med’s Tortoise Calcium Block is a nutritious calcium supplement and enrichment aid designed specifically for tortoises. Each block combines a solid calcium base with a blend of healthy vegetables, including Spineless Opuntia Cactus, Carrots, and Alfalfa, to support proper shell and bone development while keeping your tortoise engaged.

As tortoises chew the block to reach the food inside, they naturally wear down their beak, helping to prevent overgrowth. This multi-benefit formula provides essential calcium and vitamins while mimicking the natural foraging and scraping behaviors found in the wild.

Key Features

• Calcium & Nutrition in One: Provides calcium along with nutrient-rich cactus, carrot, and alfalfa.

• Supports Beak Health: Helps prevent overgrowth as tortoises bite and scrape the block.

• Enrichment Activity: Encourages natural chewing and foraging behavior.

• Vegetable-Infused Formula: Includes Spineless Opuntia Cactus—a natural dietary staple for many tortoises.

• Simple to Use: Just place the block in the habitat for self-feeding.
