You can start putting Henry's Healthy Blocks in his cage with him. Here is where you can buy them: http://www.henryspets.com/squirrel-blocks-growth-formula/

After he is eating those (not just shredding them), you can start putting fresh veggies in the cage. Here is a list of healthy veggies. Do not give him any types of nuts or fruits yet though. http://thesquirrelboard.com/forums/showthread.php?t=32218

At 7 weeks old we generally introduce squirrels to HHB squirrel blocks and once they are graciously accepting the blocks as part of their daily diet then you can slowly introduce them to vegetables, wild plants, fruits and a variety of nuts.

Do I keep feeding him formula?? When do I ween him?

[monkey girl]

Yes, keep feeding him formula. He will ween himself off when he is ready.
