Can squirrels eat any wild mushrooms???? I found some - just don't know if it is OK to give them

I wouldn't, you never know if they are safe or not...I suppose your squirrel would if they were in the wild, but since their not and they rely on you for food I wouldn't give it to them!

No.
Even mushroom connoisseurs often make mistakes and humans get poisoned. Let alone animals

On the main road near my place are signs from local government about eating mushrooms found under oaks trees as they are deathcap mushrooms and are dangerous.
