favorite food? probably peanuts or sunflower seeds. Most nutritious?, especially for a developing squirrel, probably not. They actually need a lot of calcium which can be found in dry dog or cat food. of course a steady diet of this would not be good either. If you are enjoying feeding the squirrels create your own ';squirrel mix'; with all the favorites to attract them but with some of the ';healthy stuff' also including dried corn and dogfood.What is a squirrels favorite food?
Nuts!
Monkeynuts - it's fun to watch as they crack them open (but you'll have to sweep up later!)
Hazel nuts - they love these!
The occasional walnut - it's the look of amazement on their faces - try it, you'll see what I mean...just bowl it along the ground towards one.
Sunflower seeds, and bird seed in general. ';Sunflower hearts'; are loved by squirrels and birds alike and leave no messy bits, the whole lot gets eaten.
Very photogenic, squirrels...I hope you've got the camera out!What is a squirrels favorite food?
They like acorns more than anything. That's why you always find acorn tops without the actual acorn. They also like sunflower seeds but not as much as acorns.
they love sunflower seeds, and they're so cute whenever they're opening them.
The squirrels in our yard clean out my sunflower seed feeder.
