Re: Need advice on new baby squirrel ASAP
Ok I'll hold off on the calcium until I get a better source. She is one fox valley 20/50 and the syringe is about 1/4 of a teaspoon (the measurements came off the syringe). I have been rotating her veggies every night so she gets a variety (cucumber,zuchinni,yellow squash,a little carrot,romaine ,mushrooms, broccoli, sugar snap peas,kale,spinach) . I usually give her veggies then come back a little later to give her a squirrel block (she gets one in the morning too) and if she eats most of her veggies i give her a small piece of fruit (apple,berries,banana,clementine,kiwi and so on) and also a shelled nut to crack. I did discover I was overfeeding her mealworms about a week back so I have pulled back on that and only give her 1 a day (which I'm hoping it still isnt too much)shenk just loves them so much.
I have not been able to detect any popping or clicking in her lungs (just clicking of her teeth lol).
And I have only noticed the seizures when she has been in the bonding pouch . At first I didnt really know what was going on (still not sure it's a seizure) but I dont really see what else it could be . They started about a week ago and I have probably been present for 3 or so.It seems to happen towards the end of the day but that is also when I usually have her in her pouch with me so it could be happening other times. But I will say that she gets up so late lately that I havnt had her in her play tent often because she is so sleepy when I'm up. I might have to start waking up early to get some play time in with her and observe. I am such a paranoid person that I convinced myself they weren't seizures and I'm being crazy .....but if I am right......I dont want her to suffer.
