What kind of milk can you feed baby squirrels?

The best formula to use is Esbilac or Milk Matrix Zoologic 33/40, or Fox Valley 32/40. Esbilac is the only formula that can be purchased at most pet shops or here at Chris’s Squirrels and More, BUT, we prefer you purchase the Esbilac immediately at a local pet store.

Place uncooked rice or bird seed in a sock and warm in the microwave for 20-30 seconds. Wrap the sock in a soft towel and place it with the baby in an open container [e.g., a box]. Remember, do not give the baby food or water!
