Henry's Healthy Pets Fox Valley Day ONE 32/40 Formula for Squirrels, Rabbits and Opossums
Overview
Fox Valley Day ONE 32/40 is a rehabber-grade powdered milk replacer formulated for neonatal wildlife, primarily for baby squirrels up to about four weeks old. Its energy-dense, high-protein/high-fat profile is designed to support rapid weight gain and healthy growth in tiny orphans and abandoned litters. The powder mixes into a smooth, syringe- or tube-friendly consistency and is widely used by wildlife rehabilitators for flyers, rats, mice, eastern cottontails, opossums, woodchucks, guinea pigs and similar species that need a rich neonatal diet. People choose this product when they need a trusted, concentrated replacer that mimics the caloric density of wildlife milk and improves short-term weight and energy recovery during the critical first weeks of life.
