Are the mineral blocks in pet stores okay to give my girls? I was looking at the ones that are multicolored and fruit flavored for hamsters, gerbils, etc.

I have some just like that. Curious to hear what others say.

Those mineral blocks aren't harmful, but be aware that they don't provide adequate minerals, especially calcium, or especially enough vitamins. Your squirrel must eat rodent blocks or squirrel blocks as 80% of his diet to get the nutrition he needs.
