Adding Ultraboost to Esbilac

Post by Black Squirrel » Mon Aug 19, 2019 10:22 pm

We have learned of a success via The Squirrel Board regarding the addition of Fox Valley "Ultraboost" to Esbilac for babies 2 weeks and older. It is reported that the squirrels are healthy and their condition is good utilizing this method. To mix it properly you add 1/3 portion of Ultraboost to 2/3 portion of Esbilac Puppy Powder with Prebiotics and Probiotics. With that total measurement of mixed powder you then add two equal parts of hot water (2:1 ratio) and prepare as shown at the bottom of the Care and Resource page. Example: With 4 tablespoons of power add 8 tablespoons of hot water and mix.

Has anyone tried this and what are your results? Personally I don't rehab a lot of baby squirrels but will use this method from now on when they do come in.

NOTE: Until further notice we have discontinued recommending Esbilac. See our Basic Care page for our Goats Milk Formula
