My Squirrel Babies

[celinajune]

My three "squirrel babies" are almost 9 months now -- all waiting for release soon! They are all assumingly brothers & little nut balls.

Jackson is always one happy boy when he gets a squirrel block:

Does anyone have a picture of how much they're feeding their babies? Mine each have small bowls that are filled 2x a day. They all get one squirrel block and then a mixture of fruit and veggies from the fridge. They rarely get seeds or nuts as treats (once a week), but everyone who sees them remarks how fat they are. :/

:D Thanks -- I think they're quite handsome boys myself (but I might just be inclined to say that since I'm their momma) lol.

:Welcome celinajune.:wave123 your boys look like they have quite a fun cage:thumbsup Have they been outside .....I bet they are raring to go...I'm envious of winter babies...because you can keep them longer:thinking although its probably a lot more work:jump look forward to seeing them and their adventure:Welcome :grouphug

They are adorable! What is their regular diet? Do they eat sunflower seeds often?

I think your boys look good:thumbsup my babies are still on formula and a block a day:thinking with branches and leaves for between time nibbling:dono my adult squirrel gets 2 blocks and then some veggies in the evening ...maybe a whole dandelion some romaine...a Brussels sprout..she never eats it all...sometimes I give her sweet potato with calcium dusted on it....she loves sweet potato:dono but not real good for her as I've learned here:thumbsup she also will nibble on tree leaves.

I think your guys look good and I would want mine fattened up a little before release:crazy so I think you don't have anything to worry about:thumbsup
