I have some questions about squirrel blocks.
I made squirrel blocks as the recipe here says, but didn't see what temperature I'm supposed to bake it.
I baked it for 350 about 10mins then looked like burnt so turned down the oven to 300 and baked about 25mins. Still looks burnt and hard.(like baguette-hard outside & little bit softer inside.) I've never seen squirrel blocks before, I'm not sure what it should be like.
The good thing was, before trash them away I gave Amber a piece. SHE LOVED IT. So I decided to keep them for now since I worry about her taking not enough calcium.
still wonder I should make new batch or it's okay to feed her these.
My questions are, how hard it is supposed to be, and what `F it need to be baked on. (I FOUND IT, 225f......I just found it.... That's why it's burnt and hard........ I better make new ones...)
Also it doesn't have full amount of vitamin K or magnesium or zinc. I realized that before grinding them to mix.
Should I get those missing ingredient and make new blocks? (Her diet is still on formula.)
And the other thing is, Amber likes to lick fingers and toes for some reason...
We're wondering if it's normal or it has a particular reason for doing it. Seriously whenever she gets out of cage, goes for fingers and toes like crazy.
