He eats solid food in addition to formulas, and is around 5 or 6 weeks old.

I've been feeding him kitten formula, apples, walnuts, and a water/sugar/salt mixture (it's supposed to be a good hydrator instead of plain water.) Is this giving him enough nutrients?

He nibbles my fingers kind of a lot, is this is a sign he's still hungry? Or is that most likely just boredom of playfulness?
 
hi, i have had several baby squirrels. so anyway you are giving him everything he needs exept i highly recommend you feeding him sliced almonds they love them! Actually please give them to him. LOL.
One more thing i know this really sucks to hear but after 1-2 months you generally have to give them to a wild life centre. :(
hope this helped
