if eating out of bottle u feed kitten milk in a bottle for kittens and after several weeks youmove them over to seeds or crushed nuts you should bottle feed every 2-6 hrs depends on age you should be able to look on internet under hand raising baby squirels
Hello Carl P, from what I am reading, it looks like puppy formula is a good bet. Just Born for puppies, Zoologic Milk Matrix 33/40, and Nuturall for puppies are suggested puppy formulas. If you get the dry kind that needs to be mixed, you can make it closer to squirrel mommy's own milk for baby squirrel. Puppy formula appears to be at a 2-1 ratio, water to dry mix. For the little squirrel, use 1.5-1 ratio. Please look at the links. I think they will help a lot. The first link will be the feeding schedule suggestion. Wow, expect a hectic feeding schedule. Remember to keep the little one warm. Oh, and you'll have to stimulate the little squirell to go potty after eating. You don't want anything backing up. Good luck. - Duch
You can buy milk replacement at any vet or pet supply. They also sell tiny bottles with instructions on how much to feed and how often. Good luck.
