Has anyone here raised squirrels or rabbits from pinky?

Bro why are you raiding squirrel nests and trying to raise them as pets?

That's inhumane if they're dying all the time and you keep trying it.

I hope those weren't dead baby squirrels you're holding in that picture.

I was about to sit down for dinner and now my appetite is diminished. Thanks for that...

I climb and cut down the tree that they live in. Then I find the nest.

Then I find them and I’m asking for help.

Yes, I’ll cut my nails.

I see. So your profession is destroying squirrel habitats but you feel guilty about it and are just trying to help.

You should just leave them there so a bird of prey can have them as a tasty treat. Circle of Life and shite.

My profession is a climbing arborist.

Bend, Oregon.

This is my third round of squirrels in the last six years and I’ve had zero success.

I’ve woken up every two hours to make them right again but nothing helps.

That’s why I’m asking for help and here you come being derogatory towards me and my profession.

Either post something positive or I can frick you up at Sonic.

It's pretty tough to do. I had one from a litter of three that make it after a hurricane took out a tree in my yard. One died within a day, other two made it to adolescent but one eventually passed.

The third one made it a year before I eventually let it go after it bit me while changing its water and cleaning its cage.

I can't remember which formula I used but reach out to a vet or rescue. I'd honestly just do that anyway and not even attempt it.

Yeah I’m running KMR. Kitten milk replacement.

They aspirate so hard. And I think the formula just dries in their sinuses and they stop breathing.

Just looking for help. No shelter around those parts would care about a squirrel.

I do.

That's cool. I guess your job is probably helping the environment in some way. Good for you.

Not really. You didn't mention that it was your profession in the OP.

That’s because your mind is more simple than mine.

I've raised a bunch of rabbits with the help of the mother rabbit, never on my own. I imagine keeping them warm and bottle feeding would be the key.
