Hello from Holli's Mom (Kristy)

[Holli's Mommy]

Hi All,

I've been nosing around for a moth or so now and thought it was about time to join the squirrel family.

I must say, the info here has really help me out a lot, as I am a first time squirrel mommy.

Meet Holli :Love_Icon:Love_Icon

She was found after a bad storm, nest and one baby on the back on my husbands truck, scooped her up
on 8/1/16 and she's turning into a beautiful, sweet little girl.

A lot of work, followed by a lot of joy.

Thanks for allowing me to join, I look forward to meeting every one.

Welcome to TSB! Your baby is beautiful! Good job! :grouphug
Since you are a new squirrel mommy and us not knowing what you have or
haven't researched, diet is very important for "captive" squirrels and their
nutritional requirements. Can you please tell us what her daily diet consists
of so we'll know your on the right track or can help guide you if need be.

Sure....Holli eat Henry's Health Blocks (I rotate with Picky Blocks and Wild Blocks).
She never took to Rodent Block. One block for breakfast followed by a few pieces of veggies,
then a few more veggies and fruit at lunch with a HB Peanut treat, then her second block of the day
for dinner and a few pieces of veggies.

Her fav veggies are....Broccoli, squash, Brussel sprouts, kale. celery, carrots, and sweet potato (I limit the sweet potato).

I also provide daily "Wild" things like pine cones, and live Oak limbs with leaves on. (NO acorns)

Well, she was found alone (No sibling), she is very tame and well socialized (I even take her to work with me.)
I'm thinking of release, but not sure that would be a good idea considering she has not fear of my dogs.

She's spoiled, for sure.

There's a rehaber close to me, so if there's ever any issues (Hope there won't be) I have someone local to reach out to.
