Choosing a supplement should not feel like guesswork, trial-and-error, or wasted money. When it comes to Henry’s Blocks, the decision is actually simpler than it looks, especially when you start with the right approach.
All Henry’s Blocks provide 100 percent of daily vitamins and minerals and help prevent Metabolic Bone Disease (MBD) by delivering the correct balance of calcium and phosphorus in every serving. That part never changes.
What does change is acceptance.
Since every Block offers the same nutritional benefits, choosing the right one is not about nutrition at all. It is about making supplementation easier, more consistent, and less stressful. For many people, starting with the Henry’s Blocks Sampler Pack is a practical way to do exactly that. The sampler pack includes approximately ten days’ worth of Blocks, with samples of each Block variety, allowing preferences to emerge without committing to a full bag too soon.
Why Ingredient Preference Matters
Nuts are the first ingredient in Henry’s Blocks, and many squirrels show a strong preference for specific nuts. That preference plays a big role in whether a supplement is eaten willingly or ignored.
When a Block is readily accepted:
- Daily routines are smoother
- Less food is wasted
- Proper nutrition is easier to maintain long term
Ingredient preference is not a minor detail. It is often the difference between success and struggle.
When Preferences Are Already Known
In many cases, nut preferences are obvious. Some squirrels consistently choose walnut first. Others gravitate toward hazelnut, pecan, or peanut every time.
When that information is already known, choosing a Block is straightforward. Selecting a variety that contains the preferred nut makes acceptance more likely and reduces unnecessary trial-and-error.
It is also worth remembering that preferences can change over time. A Block that is eaten eagerly now may not be the favorite later on, which is another reason some people keep a sampler pack on hand even after a favorite has been established.
When Preferences Are Still a Mystery
Not every situation comes with clear answers.
Squirrels that are just beginning solid foods often have not developed strong preferences yet. In other cases, background and food history may be unknown. Guessing in these situations can quickly become expensive.
This is where the Henry’s Blocks Sampler Pack makes sense.
Instead of committing to a full bag and hoping for the best, the sampler pack allows preferences to reveal themselves naturally. Once it is clear which Block is eaten most consistently, investing in that variety becomes an easy and confident decision.
For many people, starting with the sampler pack is not only easier, it is cheaper in the long run.
The Goal Is Consistency, Not Perfection
There is no “best” Henry’s Blocks flavor across the board, and preferences are not always permanent. The right Block is simply the one that gets eaten consistently at any given time.
Choosing based on known nut preferences, using a sampler pack to figure them out, or revisiting the sampler when preferences change all serve the same purpose: removing unnecessary stress from supplementation and helping proper nutrition fit smoothly into daily routines.
That is the real goal.
