DAily Ca /bit D ratios?

[MaryNGordon]

I can't seem to find a daily value for calcium and D for adult squirrels. I know that when you add phosphorus you have to add more calcium to balance out the ratio. And during the winter months when there is no sun, what vitamin D is needed to process the calcium? I guess just feeding 2 HHB isn't the answer I'm looking for- I want to dig deeper and know more of WHAT values are needed. That is why I'm asking :) thanks !

I will keep track of your thread because it's one of my biggest questions. I limit the phosphorus for my Albino (in general no nuts), but she can not be exposed to sunlight because of her eyes.

I generally provide a little egg yokes, mushrooms, a little cheese, and of course home made HHBs that have an ample supply of almonds - which are rich in Vitamin D.

I will see what others might suggest.

What type of mushroom? Mine is scared of them

This is a little circuitous but it works.

Run your mouse over the Vita-mins label and it will enlarge. The serving size is 1 day's vitamins and minerals for an average squirrel. I believe everything you are looking for is there.
