That's great! Pretty easy for the most part. Avoid cedar chips for bedding. It's bad for their lungs. Rather, opt for pine shavings or some sort of straw.
I heard that cedar and pine shavings are bad for the lungs of hamsters but Aspen is fine for hamsters. I don't know if this true for squirrels.@@justafarmdad
They rely a lot on smell at this age. Since it wasn't just me feeding the Squirrel, I wanted to get the kids involved to hopefully decrease the chances of the Squirrel only feeding from me. Thanks for the comment. 👍
I think you might have a little girl there. The boys have their wee higher up, closer to the belly button. It's harder to tell the difference when you only have one. Thank you for taking such good care of her! ^..^~~~
He was next to our driveway laying under a pine tree. There looked to be a nest about 20 feet in the air that he may have fallen out of. I just happen to see him squirming around on his back about 30 yds away. It rained hard the night before, so I'm glad I was able to rescue him before he died.
At the end of the day, we have to be careful how we interact with nature. The mother might have had a genetic disease that is now passed on to her offspring who will pass it to the next generation. I presume that you are not going to keep it as a pet. Wild animals are worth saving but in my mind, creating more conservation sites is the way forward. How many people are in the world already? 8 billion or something like that? Were are running out of options where we grow our food. The food industry takes its chop from the available land. We are standing on the edge of a knife. The balance might have been tipped already.
Wow, you come across as such an intellectual, but really don't have a clue. I've rescued animals, some were released, some not. Depended on the situation. Squirrels don't usually make good pets, but there is a history of them being kept as pets years ago. In the grand scheme of things one squirrel is not going to upset the balance of anything. That squirrel is healthy, not a thing wrong with it other than it likely fell out of the nest in a storm. Mother squirrels will normally go looking for their young, but sometimes they end up orphaned. As for the rest of your dribble, all dome and glum. For 100 years mankind is destroying the earth and the end dates keep coming and going. Is a great scam for those who want power, money, and control. If you really want to worry about something consider nuclear war.
You are a good person. Thank you for saving this innocent animal.
We do our best to take care of all animals! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for saving the little soul God blessed you all.🙏🙏🙏
My great respect and so much thanks for rescuing this tiny absolute cute Baby Squirrel 😍🥰😍😍😍❤💖💝
Thank you for saving him.
Thank you for rescuing him , now you have a companion who bring you comfort and joy
Soooo adorable, little squirrel. Very neat. God bless you taking care of that little creature. 🩷🐿️
He was a blessing to the family! It was a great way to teach the kiddos compassion and care for animals.
Thank you for your thoughtfulness ❤❤❤❤
I just found a baby squirrel in my yard 3 days. now I can't believe I'm taking care of a squirrel.

So sweet ! 😊
Good job dad! Keep up look'n out for out small forest friends.
Thank u so much for saving this little guy l feed them everyday each one has their own personality I bet your kids are loving ❤️ it
Love the gentleness. Some rehabber videos look like they are drowning the squirrels. Guessing they didn't grow up on a farm.
I wouldn't be having the kid mess with it. That's gotta be scaring the s**t out of him. His eyes aren't open.

Cute little fella

Yes, you are correct! Hope it doesn't confuse people. I have a bad habit of calling everything buddy and him. Thanks for the clarification. 👍
😍🐿
That's funny, we have a Tommin named after the sweet prince on game of thrones. Every now and then he turns into Joffery the little tyrant.
That's awesome!
Aw - darling❤
Awwwww❤❤❤
❤️
I have a 3 week old too I feed him with a bottle
I tried the bottle, but my kitten formula stayed too chunky and wouldn't pass through the nipple. What's your secret?
@@justafarmdad I don’t buy the powder formula, I get the liquid add spring water to it n little whipping cream
❤❤❤❤❤
What milk are you using?
This was kitten milk from my local veterinarian office.
அணில் குட்டி அறவே குடிக்கல. என்ன காரணம்?
How long it takes him to open his eyes ?
It was right at about 5 weeks. We came down one morning, and only one eye was open, and by the end of the day, both had opened up.
I got two babys 10 days old
Nice! Good to get them before the eyes open up. How did you come across them?
hello.. do you have another baby squirrel.. i want a companion for mine
I don't. They definitely do better in pairs.
@@justafarmdad oh.ok
Where did you find this tiney baby .
He was next to our driveway laying under a pine tree. There looked to be a nest about 20 feet in the air that he may have fallen out of. I just happen to see him squirming around on his back about 30 yds away. It rained hard the night before, so I'm glad I was able to rescue him before he died.
