You should change formulas. You don't see MBD until it is very advanced.
What is MBD? I’m new baby Momma. All this is overwhelming. What do I feed then? Mine little girl is paralyzed in the back end.

We need to start a new thread for you. We can help you. Please come back.
MBD is Metabolic Bone Disease. It is caused by low calcium in the diet. If your squirrel is a baby and you are feeding Esbilac, it is caused by the formula.

Sheila, this is the temporary formula we are recommending at this time. You should order FoxValley 20:50 now so that you can transition to it.
If your baby is already paralyzed you need to supplement with calcium. We can help you with this.
TEMPORARY GOAT'S MILK FORMULA:
3 parts goat’s milk
1 part heavy whipping cream*
1 part vanilla yogurt
Formula will last 48 hours in refrigerator.
Goat’s Milk
This can be purchased at natural food stores such as Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods, and at most health food stores that sell groceries. It is a product for humans. Do not substitute commercial formula made for baby goats or other livestock sold at feed stores.
Goat’s milk is available fresh in a carton; evaporated in a can; and as a powdered milk. If you purchase either the evaporated or powdered versions, please blend them with water according to the package directions before using to make the formula.
Heavy Whipping Cream
This is found in small cartons in the grocery store near the coffee creamers and half and half. Regular heavy cream may be substituted if it is unavailable, but the heavy whipping cream has the highest fat content, and is preferred.
Yogurt
Yogurt has beneficial bacteria in it that soothes and settles digestion. Full fat yogurt is best, and a good choice that is very widely available is Stoneyfield Yobaby yogurt. However if it is unavailable, a low fat vanilla yogurt may be substituted. Avoid those that have artificial sweeteners in them. Vanilla and banana are both popular flavors, and the sweet taste of the yogurt helps to convince the baby to accept it.

I’m so lost on the site. Bare with me as I learn to navigate the site. Ok where do I go to order the new formula? Can I speak with someone on the phone?
