I need help with a 4 week old FLYING SQUIRREL!?

I have found a 4-5 week old flying squirrel. It is a male, and his eyes just opened. I have had him for 2 weeks now. I am having a hard time finding any information on how to care for him! I need to know what to feed him, how often (he eats every 2-3 hours now but wants to eat ALL the time!), what vitamin supplements he might need, and anything else that might help me. I had a pet Grey squirrel for 15 years and a Fox squirrel for 2 years but I think the flying squirrel needs to be handled differently, right? Does anyone have any place to get good information on them? Maybe a website, or a place to get a book on them? I just want to be sure he is getting everything he needs. Thank you!I need help with a 4 week old FLYING SQUIRREL!?
Wildlife rehabbers would be able to help you. Flying squirrels are insect eaters so they benefit from things like crickets and meal worms.





Here's a great site with diet info.

Here's a rehab site on raising orphaned ones (diets cover the very young babies all the way up to full grown)

You'll want this one too--the National Flying Squirrel Association. It has diet info there as well.

They make VERY good pets. Current research found that the gypsy moth spraying cities are doing is killing flying squirrels, as the squirrels were depending on that insect as a large staple in their diet.I need help with a 4 week old FLYING SQUIRREL!?
I would call up a wildlife rehabilitator, they would know.
