The Squirrel! duty in Disney Dreamlight Valley confuses a lot of players because the name suggests you need to do something with the squirrel critters roaming the valley. You don’t. Clearing this duty comes down to one crafting task and gathering the right buttons.

Quick answer: Craft the Dug Pupcorn Bucket using 40 Green Buttons, 15 Blue Buttons, 20 Flower Buttons, and 5 Purple Buttons to complete the Squirrel! duty and receive the Handheld Dug Popcorn Bucket.

Reward and how to confirm it worked

Completing the duty rewards you with the Handheld Dug Popcorn Bucket. You’ll know the duty cleared when the Squirrel! entry registers as done and the reward lands in your inventory.

If the recipe won’t let you craft, the usual reason is a button count that’s still short. Double-check each color against the table, since the craft stays locked until all four amounts are met.

That’s the whole task. The Squirrel! duty has nothing to do with feeding or taming squirrels, so once the Dug Pupcorn Bucket is crafted, you’re finished and the Handheld Dug Popcorn Bucket is yours.
