At 4 weeks of age you will want to slowly transition him to the 20/50 as it contains the nutrition he needs at that age. Slowly increase the amount of 20/50 while decreasing the 32/40.
When his eyes open you'll want to get him nibbling on some high quality rodent block. Henry's is the preferred and Harland Envigo 2018 is also good.
Make sure you're feeding him between 5-7% of his body weight per feeding so that his weight gain continues.
Good job so far Momma!
EDIT: There is no reason to super hydrate or to add juice at this time. He's not having an issue...if it ain't broke, don't fix it....
