Obese babies
Since im here tonight getting help for a friends squirrel, figured i post pics of my guys....who are 4.5 mons old...2 boys & a girl...Sage, Sammy & Sunni. They are in the release cage now & have atleast 3 more weeks before the door opens up. They are REALLY obese....it seems like they just blew up (or im used to them & now seeing that they could litterally swallow a wild squirrel whole). They eat very well....still on FV 20/50 2x a day, full fat yogurt, lots of veggies & a few fruits, coconut oil on henrys blocks. And avacados. They are avacado junkies.
No nuts. Ive cut out the coconut oil. Yougurt once a day instead of 2x. Trimmed back on the avocado. Still get it but not as much. Anything else i can do to trim them up? I dont want to take formula away since its their calcium source. They ate active most of the day...always moving around. Ugh...im afraid to release them so chunky. Thoughts or ideas? Or is it good for them to have some extra lbs for winter? Im in florida...so winter is 80s in day & maybe 60s at night. And florida grays are smaller than other parts of the country.
