    Default New to baby squirrels any advice is greatly appreciated

    Hi I'm Billy I recently found a baby Eastern grey squirrel. I think it is about 4-5 weeks old, the mother must have abandoned them or gotten run over there was 3 of them, but unfortunately 2 were dead under the tree, and my little guy was squalling and shaking and holding on for dear life he was weak and shaking just about to loose his grip and end up like the other 2. I got him just in time, he had flys around him. So I got some Pedialyte and got him hydrated. Then got some esbilac for 2 days until I got fv20/50 he was 86 g Sunday Nov 3. He is 105g today. He is doing really good I feed him 4-5 times a day I been slowly switching from esbilac to the fv formula Im up to 8ccs is that too much? he isn't bloated, no diarrhea and is going potty before and after I feed him regularly. I'm new to this so I been researching since sunday. I have made a few mistakes. But he seems to be doing awesome. I'm so happy!
