Red stomach

[Punkin]

We have a year and half female squirrel that we rescued. She has always been healthy with eating vegetables, fruits, nuts, vitamins, calcium and has a vitamin d lite. She lives in a spare unfinished room with a tree and toys. About a month ago she started itching and developed a bright red stomach. We keep her house clean and her bedding washed. We thought maybe fleas but have found none. Help please

I have asked an admin to come help. I have been away too long to explain it.

Thank you - I will try to get a picture - as you know, she doesn't sit still 😘

I can't get a picture of her belly but it is very red. It is very noticable when she stretches. Has anyone had this happen to their squirrel?

[Shinys]

I'm in Idaho too, are you on the west or east side of the state? Maybe I could come look and see if I can see what's going on.

I live in north Central near Grangeville.

Punkin, can you email a pic? I can give you my email address if you have a pic.
I could post the pic for you.

In your first post I didn’t understand something you said. I think it was a typo.
... Vitamin d lite. What does that mean?

UV light?

[Punkin]

Yes it is UV lite - she won't sit still long enough for me to get a pic of her stomach. Also, she will not eat the blocks - any help with getting her to eat them. She has a large window in her room so is getting some sun and we take her outside often.
