I took a break for a little over a year when I moved, but somehow these little guys (baby grey’s), keep finding me. I keep seeing comments referring to HHB’s for baby squirrels, just checking in on what you guys have had the best success rate with up until now - I know things change quickly in this community.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions -

The HHB remain the gold standard!

I’m sorry I wasn’t clear, I have the link for Henry’s - I’ve always ordered from them. I’m asking if there is a specific block you start baby greys on, as they offer a few different types. I’m wondering if one is better nutritionally to start.

The ones with higher protein for flyers are suppose to be best for young ones, BUT many squirrels don’t care so much for them. I have had the best luck with the picky formula.
I would consider giving something like Harlan Teklad 2018 initially as it is a complete diet for rodents. Once HHBs are offered they typically won’t choose the Harlan block.
