At 8 weeks old - your little one can be introduced to a good Squirrel Block (like HHB or HT) and once he has accepted it as part of his daily diet you leave him at night with out any formula and just place a block in the cage so IF he wakes up early in the morning before you get back and wants to eat --the block is there for him to chew on.

By 8 weeks old I am no longer feeding my Squirrels their nightly feeding..... I feed one last time before I go to bed and thats it.
