My squirrel is about 7-weeks old and was being attacked by an older squirrel when found. I think something happened to his eye. Should i give it antibiotics and how much do i give? Can he have amoxicillin?

Can you post a picture of the eye?
What makes you think it needs antibiotics?
When needed, antibiotics are dosed by mg/strength of the anitbiotic,
and the weight of the squirrel in GRAMS.

How much does your squirrel weigh and what is the strength of the amoxicillin? What does the bottle say on it so we can figure the dose.
