hi guys, this is my second thread about plantain squirrel.
i need some handy advice about raising a squirrel (baby squirrel, still learning to eat.) and indeed im open this thread to share my squirrel story.
here's my story,
about last month i just bought a plantain squirrel
and 4 days ago, i got him to the pet caring becoz i have to go out of town for a couple day.
when i came back to town, and going to the pet caring meeting point to take my beloved Bro.
guess what? they lost him, :cry
here's they story :
"we have some cats here, and the cat weren't caged so we left for 5 mins, and came back with your squirrel cage open.
i guess he went to the forest, becoz our place have a backyard forest. now, we're not sure if he would coming back,
coz its been two days. Im, we really sorry about that sir. so, for the responsibility we would be very glad to let you take
our squirrel, he's a plantain squirrel too. or, we got another option, its up to you sir, what are you demand us to do?"
i was speechless, and i dunno what to do either.
i take a look to the squirrel inside Bro's cage. well, it seems they didnt expected that to happen either,
and im too weak to say no to them. so i accept him, immediately go to take him home.
His name is Steve the Step Brother.
im still confused about My Bro age, and Steve age.
the both of em is totally different :cry
I bought Bro from a birds market, the seller told me that he's two months old more/less. now, he's 3 months old.
he's seems bigger and more mature than Steve.
Steve is 3 months old, the woman told me that they bought him from a seller that told em he's about two months old. and they already sitting him about 1 month.
so, in short way, they age 3months old depending on what i explained before.
the difference is that Bro is bigger than Steve, Bro eat banana and other food like a boss (he chew them all) in contrast Steve is just like licking/sucking the banana (he cant or dont eat another food i used to feed Bro),
Bro's tail is already bloomed, Steve got a mouse tails with fur look alike.
so, i think they werent at the same age at all. it could be the dirty seller sold me a (3 month older squirrel) or Steve is +- 2 months younger.
i asked the woman, about what do they feed Steve. They said, they feed him banana. my intuition said, he need some milk (baby caring situation) and banana is too soon for him to consume.
how about you guys? what's your opinion and what i should do? :confused
P.S :
pls pardon my bloody english, im asian (indonesia) after all and still learning english.
btw, i fed Bro cucumber(fav), banana, and orange. <<<priority cucumber.
i cant afford to buy some import squirrel formula, and i couldnt find a pet store that sells some.
