    Default Tiny baby acorns

    Just cut fresh oak branches that have tons of little acorn buds
    Are these ok if they nibble them?

    I've had them and they are green. I was told they are fine so I did give them to my squirrels 👍

    Yes, squirrels in the wild start eating acorns when they are green and young.

    I have seen a lot of young squirrels, but none of them have been green!
