HEY!!!!
You know I was thinking of growing a climbing rose bush on the side of my release cage for cover for that very reason!!! Rose hips are very nutritious and the wilds will gobble them up. I've noticed Chippies in particular love them.

Are rose hips from climbing roses edible too?
Or I guess a better question...are there any known rose hips that aren't edible?

I buy organic rose hip from this Chin site:

.... you can find them on Ebay some times to.

Here is another website that has rose hips and hibiscus:
http://www.tjschinchillasupplies.com/chinchillasupplies.html

- they have other natural treats for Chins and Rabbits on this site too, maybe some of the more experienced rehabbers can tell us IF any of the others items are good (safe) for our squirrels to eat on an occasion as a treat only.
