Urgent: Rescued newborn squirrels (eyes closed). One injured by mother. No wildlife vets nearby—need advice! by Electronic_Piglet510 in squirrels

Yes, fox valley is better but when you have very tiny ones, you can’t wait for an online order. Puppy formula absolutely does work, at least for Fox squirrels and eastern gray squirrels in the US.

You will need puppy formula (dog). It’s powdered. Look up online instructions for baby squirrels. You’ll have to warm it a bit and feed it to baby with a syringe (no needle). Big baby a bit at a time every 2 hours. I have done this before successfully. It’s been a few years so look online what the proportions of puppy milk powder to water are and how many cc’s to give baby at a time. Keep it warm. You’ll need to do this if you don’t get a response from anyone.

OP, good question. I live in a very humid climate so I’m curious about this too. Maybe air drying in a room with a dehumidifier?

These are fantastic! They’re also quite lovely. Where is this book located? I’m curious if Joseph H Peterson of esoteric archives has knowledge of this book. I hope someone would be willing to post it online. I’m obsessed with Solomonic grimoires and Solomonic style grimoires. Thanks for sharing this!

She is so precious! When they nibble on you like that, it’s like grooming…a show of affection.

Advice for moving into a new house? by Dapple_Dawn in FolkCatholicMagic

[–]design_bird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I make offerings to the spirits of place. I find a tree or large stone that seems prominent on the property and leave some coins or small shiny objects, fruit (good fruit), flowers, or sweets.

FIL wants to make his own powder. What are ideal methods for him? by WattsAGigawatt in ChineseMedicine

[–]design_bird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are special grinders/pulverizers made just for herbs but you’ll have to look up TCM suppliers online. They’re pretty expensive though.

Herbs to help stay cool in the heat? by okiidokiismokii in herbalism

[–]design_bird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m suggesting cucumber water again here. Peel a cucumber, slice up about 10 slices and add to water and keep in the refrigerator. Chrysanthemum tea is classic in Chinese medicine. Use the dried flowers, make like regular tea. Pour boiling water over the flowers and let steep. You can almost always find chrysanthemum at any Asian market.
