Why choose Little One Squirrel & Chipmunk Food?

This food is specially formulated for squirrels and chipmunks. The mix contains various textures: flakes, puffed grains, seeds, nuts, pieces of dried carrot, dried apple, and dried rowan berry. As a result, your animal does not get the same bite every time, but a varied mix in which to search and select.

This is important for squirrels and chipmunks, because feeding is not just about food, but also about behavior. These animals are agile, curious, and focused on collecting. By not only providing the mix in a bowl, but also partially hiding it or offering it in a bird feeder, you make feeding time more interesting.

The mix is energy-rich due to the nuts and seeds. This makes it attractive and suitable for active animals, but it is also a feed where the daily portion remains important. Therefore, feed consciously according to the guidelines and combine the ration with appropriate animal proteins, as squirrels and chipmunks require these in addition to plant-based food.

For which animals is Little One Squirrel & Chipmunk Food suitable?

• Squirrel: suitable as a food mix for squirrels, for example at a clean, dry, and preferably sheltered feeding spot in the garden. Follow a guideline of approximately 20–30 grams per day and adjust this according to the season, activity, and natural food availability.
• Chipmunk: suitable as a daily food mix for chipmunks/ground squirrels. Follow a guideline of approximately 10–20 grams per day, depending on size, activity, and other diet.

For other rodents, it is preferable to choose a food that is specifically suited to that species. Hamsters, gerbils, rats, guinea pigs, and rabbits each require their own nutritional base and ratios.

Feeding & use

Feed Little One Squirrel & Chipmunk food according to the daily guideline and closely monitor your animal's condition, activity, and food intake. For squirrels, you can use approximately 20–30 grams per day. For chipmunks, approximately 10–20 grams per day is a practical guideline.

Preferably offer the food in a fixed, clean spot. For outdoor squirrels, a covered feeding area or squirrel feeder works well, as it keeps the food drier and cleaner. For chipmunks, you can offer part of the food in a food bowl and hide the rest, so the animal has to actively search for it.

In addition to this plant-based mix, squirrels and chipmunks also need suitable animal proteins. Therefore, offer a suitable protein source approximately twice a week, such as mealworms or an appropriate insect mix. Additionally, always ensure there is suitable fresh drinking water available.

Foraging: turn feeding into an activity too

Squirrels and chipmunks don't just eat from a bowl; they enjoy searching, sorting, peeling, and collecting. You can use this to your advantage when offering this mix. Scatter some of the food in a bird feeder, hide some pieces among natural materials, or offer a small portion in a foraging bin.

For indoor chipmunks, you can distribute small portions across multiple spots in the enclosure. This encourages the animal to actively search. For outdoor squirrels, a fixed feeding spot is most convenient, as it allows you to better monitor whether the food remains clean, dry, and fresh.
