I recently was told to purchase Nurse All multi-species milk replacer with probiotics for new baby squirrels.
I'm not having very good luck or it's not being mixed correctly.
I was told to use 1 part powder to 2 parts water.

I've lost 1 baby. And close to losing the other 2. Help before I lose the other two.

Does it say Multi-Milk Replacer Base by PetAg?

This one? https://www.squirrelsandmore.com/collections/milk-replacers/products/multi-milk-28-oz-powder-milk-replacer-by-petag?variant=18408164039

How old is your squirrel and are you using 1 or 3 mL syringes with nipples?

I've never heard of that formula, but what you want is POWDERED Esbilac puppy formula. Is it possible to get that?

It's Nurse All by mannapro says 9 species. I was told the zoo said it would work with baby squirrels.
Eyes still closed but little hair. About 3 to 4 weeks.

Here is a thread about it if this is the same thing: https://thesquirrelboard.com/forums/showthread.php?27634-Uni-Milk-Help-Please

We use mostly Fox Valley and some use Esbilac Puppy Milk Replacer with probiotics (powder) for under 5 weeks.

I see you are in Evansville, I may know of someone at the Zoo in Louisville that has a stock of Fox Valley

You can purchase the Esbilac locally at most pet retailers. Unfortunately it's expensive at pet retailers. It's pretty cheap on Amazon. The FoxValley is only available online.

If you buy FoxValley get the 20/50 type.

If you buy Esbilac make sure it's the powdered puppy Esbilac with probiotics and prebiotics. Do NOT buy the liquid puppy Esbilac in a can. It's not the same and will cause diarrhea.

tacokid, see your other thread with additional information.

Can you give us more information about your babies. Do they have diarrhea?
How long have you had them? I think we can help you. If they are this compromised I would try very hard to get the proper formula today. You don't have time to order FoxValley that was mentioned in the other thread. Buy the powdered puppy Esbilac at a pet retailer as soon as possible.

HRT4SQRLS, I just merged both the threads, and sent a pm to tacokid
with a link to this one.

Sorry I was not on the board last night after ~8:00. :(
