    Default Easteren grey seems small

    Hi I have a 7 month old male easteren grey.

    He is on the Jersey healthy pets diet sheet, picky blocks 2 per day

    Still eats formula fox valley 20/50 10 cc in the am , 5 cc at 2 pm and amd 10 cc at6 pm if he wants it.

    I have looked for a diet sheet for that age but cant find 1.

    According to my scale today he is 366 grams. Is that too small?

    He has free roam with 24 hour supervision when out. Only is in cage for me to clean, shop, and dr visits for me.

    He runs everywhere plays all the time.

    Still sleeps in my hands and robe at 2 pm amd falls asleep around 7 30 pm every day.

    He couldn't be soft released till this spring in 2021 due to his poor start in life.

    Hoping he wields up slowly this spring so we cam see if he still has no fear of cats dogs and birds.
    If he isnt fearful of them he will live out his life here with the supervision of his vet. This is pipet for those that knew him. My dad passed last year so I kinda been keeping 2 myself playing with pip.
    Nancy, snickers papa bear are a few that knew him

    I have never had 1 so active.

    Hi! I didn't know you had a new baby to care for! I am so glad for you, and even more glad for Pipet! So sorry about you losing your Dad. I just lost my Mom on Monday, still processing it.

    I have nothing to offer regarding your concerns, but of course someone will. I just wanted to say hi, have missed seeing you on the board over the months, but maybe just missed it if you posted. Best wishes to you and Pipet! I am glad he has been a comfort to you in your loss.

    366gr is on the small side, but the gray squirrels in these southern states don’t get nearly as big as their northern counterparts. I just had a young wild male to the vet a few days ago and his weight about the same as Pipet. The vet didn’t comment on him being underweight. I think as they get older they tend to get bigger and heavier.

    I’m sorry for your loss, as well as yours Chirps.
