A friend of mine found a baby squirrel 3 days ago and tried to reunite it with its mom but was unsuccessful . She gave the squirrel to me the next day which was Friday evening. Its a 6-7 week old baby squirrel that has been taking in 10 cc of esbilac powder mix every 5 hours or four times a day since friday evening. She had 12 cc this morning and now will only take in 3 cc. She is urinating fine but hasn't had a bowel movement yet. She did get the pedialyte mixed with water in the beginning before formula . I ordered the fox valley 20/50 on friday so hopefully I get it soon. Is there anything I should do or should I be worried at this point ? Thanks

How long was she receiving pedialyte after intake?

You are not finding any waste in her bin / cage? At this age they go on their own...

She just now took 12 cc of formula. She received pedialyte friday evening before formula and then Saturday morning and later in the afternoon in between feedings. She is urinating a lot but I haven't noticed a bowel movement yet.
