ProRep Tortoise Calcium Block 95g | Vegetables & sits in our insects listings, where we rank by how buyers actually rate a product rather than by brand.

Enriched with natural vegetables and prickly pear to make the block genuinely attractive to tortoises. Those are the seller's own claims rather than our testing, so treat them as a starting point.

How it compares in Insects
Across the 47 rated insects products we track, the typical score is 4.5 out of 5. This one sits at 5.0, which puts it in the upper quarter of the category rather than level with it. Where almost everything is rated well, the gap at the top is small in points and large in practice.
It carries 2 ratings against a category median of 25. That is a thin base by the standards of this category, so treat the score as provisional: a handful of extra reviews can still move it either way.
On price it sits in the lower third of a category running from £5.29 to £69.99, where the midpoint is about £9.99. Cheaper than most while rating at or above the category norm is the combination worth looking for, and it is the main argument for this one.
