Probably a touch of salt on your finger. She gave your finger
a cursory lick and liked the taste.
Try offering her a thumbnail sized piece of a saltine cracker.
There will be a salt grain or two stuck to it and satisfy any
need she has for extra salt.
I would not offer more than once a week, and probably
only every few weeks. Salt/mineral blocks are merely
expensive chew toys that last for about a minute and
make you broke and have to clean it up.
