He is curled up next to his rice buddy right now. I made it yesterday afternoon, and he really likes it. When I first put it into his cage and it's nice and warm, he curls up next to it and starts rooting. Doesn't matter that he has/had just eaten. He still roots. Probably all the warmth and comfort.
I was going to ask. How much should a wee little one at this age be poo'ing? I stimulate his "goods" after each meal. He pees A LOT. But he hasn't poo'ed since yesterday evening around 5:00 pm. I tried and tried in the middle of the night and this morning. He did poo a lot before 5:00 pm yesterday, about 4 times throughout the day.
On another note, I went back outside this morning and looked for more babies. No sign of any. I see the nest way high up in the tree, but I haven't seen ANY squirrel action around the tree at all. I've even thrown a few unsalted peanuts around the base of the tree yesterday afternoon. No takers, not even this morning. It's so odd how we found this little guy at the base of the tree, all alone and there is no sign of life out there now. It baffles us, but I am sure stranger things have happened.
He is really getting the hang of feeding time! I think the new formula smell and taste is wearing on him. The minute I take him out and put the nipple to his mouth, his little hands start going crazy. I started the 2:1 last night and that is where I really seen his appetite increase, plus he seems to be a bit spunkier towards eating now. Coincidence? Or he just likes the taste a bit better now?
Thanks again everyone!
