    Default Baby flyer pooping question(s)

    I have an 8 week old flying squirrel and I was wondering at what age can you stop stimulating them to go to the bathroom? Today is the first day that he hasn't gone to the bathroom when I stimulated him. Is this a sign that I can stop? Or is he just constipated? He can already pee on his own, so I'm just asking about poop.

    Ps. A few days ago I found some poop in his cage…but it seems that he will only pee if I'm holding him…and he had diarrhea yesterday… just thought I'd mention that.

    When they are up and walking around on their own, generally 8 wks old, is
    when I stop stimulating my babies and they are on their own.

    I agree, he is too old to still need stimulating.
