Need help with dosing

[rlk9626]

Hi! I have three 7 week old baby boys. I’ve had them since they were about 2 to 2 1/2 weeks olds. This is my first time raising baby squirrels. Unfortunately we’ve been dealing with genital nursing. No matter how much I feed them the one, Scrat, especially will keep trying to nurse off of his brothers. So whenever I cannot supervise them, I have him separated. Unfortunately I think the one whose name is Chipper has a uti. His pee has been starting to stink the last couple of days. I have some older Cipro antibiotic, but I need help with the dosing and how to administer it. I just weighed him this morning at 8 o’clock and he weighs 290g. I think his brother Timber might have one just starting as well too. He weighs 291g so I assume they can have the same dose? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, it would be the same dose but we need to know the strength of the Cipro you have (e.g 250mg, 500mg, other?). Once the info is available, you will receive detailed preparation and dosing information.

What formula are they being fed?

It is 500mg and I’m feeding them fox valley. The one for squirrels 4 weeks and older.
