she could be breaking in some teeth, you will see some blood in her mouth and on the nipple.

When my squirrels were young they would bleed when they sucked too hard so I wouldn't be too worried! It looks terrible and it really freaked me out but my vet as well as members on here told me it was normal :)

If she's getting her teeth, sometimes their gums bleed and sometimes they bite their tongue when sucking on the nipple. It looks awful and freaks me out every time I see it. After a few feedings with their new toofers they'll get the hang of it and the bleeding will stop. Mouth wounds always bleed SO much and then mix it with the formula...it looks like SO much more than it really is.
Does she have any blocks (rodent block/Henry's Healthy Blocks) to chew on? Fresh branches (maple/oak) are always well received too. Just rinse them off to make sure there are no bugs.

She's 3 weeks maybe 4 I got these apple wood things I had one in there but I took it out bc I wasn't sure if that was what was making her bleed
