Avocado

[Mennome]

How much avocado is too much? Benny gets 1 inch by 0.5 inch pieces twice per day.

Avocado is a fruit that is high in good plant fat, magnesium, and phosphorus.

Feeding a diversity of fruits by alternating choices in the daily menu is needful.

Recommend feeding avocado no more than once every 3 to 4 days at:

(1/4 Tsp.) for the Southern (ssp.) of E. Gray Squirrel

(1/2 Tsp.) for the Mid-western (ssps.) of the Eastern Fox Squirrel, and for the Northern (ssp.) of the E. Gray squirrel

(3/4) Tsp. for the larger Eastern and Gulf coast E. Fox squirrel (ssp.).

Thank you! So he gets too much. ...poor benny isn't going to be happy. To be honest, I've never offered it to my squirrels before this year. I read posts about squirrels enjoying it and offered it. Now, if he'd only eat his kale....

[Diggie's Friend]

Consider including about (1/2 Tsp.) of one of these choices of leafy greens or vegetables for northern gray ssp. and Mid-western E. Fox squirrel ssp.. in the daily.

Feed 1 1/2 Tsp. (1/2 Tbsp.) baked organic butternut, or acorn squash daily.

Maybe try chopping up your kale very small and mixing it into the Avacodo :)
