    Default Need Protein Ideas for Flying Squirrel

    I have a very picky flyer. I need to find a way to make sure she gets the protein she needs because I know she is not getting enough. She culls everything.

    Will not eat...
    Fried or boiled eggs
    Millworms or Waxworms fresh or freeze dried
    Chicken - I have even tried chicken links for babies.
    I have tried 3 kinds of mushrooms from the supermarket.
    When she first beginning to eat, she would eat Squirrel Nutrition nut squares. Now she won’t eat those. I have tried Henry’s picky blocks. Negative.
    I even caught her a moth - nope.

    I haven’t tried a cricket or grasshopper. I’m so worried about her catching a parasite they carry.

    Any advice is appreciated.

    I personally use PureBites (chicken) for my flyers source of protein and they love it.
    ....... both are healthy with shiny fur.

    *you can purchase it at your local pet store.
