I've read the standard diet for the gray squirrels, but is the diet the same for flyers? Is there anything in particular they need more or less of? Anything to stay away from? Any info would be helpful.
Thanks

The diet for a flyer should be the same as for a grey squirrel. Do you have a very young flyer or an adult? The squirrel blocks sold by 4skwerlz, a TSB member, would be the best addition to any squirrels diet.

It is an adult, how long does it take before they typically take to the rodent block if they've never had it.

Some squirrels actually never like it. Harlan-Teklad is a really good rodent block and most squirrels like the taste.
