You can give some Homemade Pedialyte for six hrs to hydrate them..... then feed Fox Valley until they are old enough to
start adding solids into the daily diet..... then we can talk about food - its slightly different than that of a squirrel.

Homemade Pedialyte
1 cup warm water
1/4 tsp salt (teaspoon)
1 Tbsp sugar (tablespoon)

*Feed no more than 24 hrs / Good for 72 hrs in Frig

Got them fed lost one of the boys he was gone when I went to feed him. 2 of them have bruises on their skin flaps and legs. And one has a pinch on his flap got ointment on that, very little so it can still breath. One of the boys has been sucked on has a scab on wee wee. None of them pooped after eating but all urinated so that's a good sign. They are all right around 12g. I fed .06 hydro formula. How often should I give it to them? Pretty dehydrated.

You are gonna want to feed 6-7 times a day. Flyers are very delicate. I'd recommend looking for a rehabber in your area, especially since they are injured.
