what vet in the BR area will touch a baby coon?
some will, some wont
you need to find a wildlife rescue or rehab place.
quickly, if the mama is dead and you want to save them
they are harmless when they are that little and pretty cute too.
you can find all manner of info on how to feed them on the internet

Wildlife Rehabilitator List
Find someone local and give them a call. These are folks who are certified by LDWF to handle orphaned wildlife and would likely be happy to take them on.

Well like I said, I had one as a kid. He lived for 13 years. His name was Bandit. Would love to have another one, now that I have a son of my own.

I had one as a teen as well. Also properly named Bandit. I sent 2 of them off and keeping 2. It's much easier raising them with a sibling. Wont cry as much amd will have more social skills. Just bathed them with kitten shampoo and they're not taking KMR milk but I have a plastic tipped syringe and am feeding them Pedialyte and they're taking that. They've had a pretty rough day so letting them rest on a nice warm heating blanket.

If anyone knows of a vet that will check these 2 for rabies and vaccinate them let me know who.

Justin Wilson may have some recipes

you need to worm them and vaccinate them ASAP.
Don’t handle them without gloves until you do that
any rural vet should do it

In before: first you make a roux

So, tractor supply worming medicine is ok? I did not know if worming them.was ok. How about a source for Rabies tests and subsequent vaccinations?

Susan is booked up and never takes in new critters

yes that should be fine, weigh them on a food scale so you know the correct dosage.
don’t touch their poop and make sure you burn it or bag it until you worm them
just start calling vets you’ll find one.
don’t get mad when they all lecture you though about keeping them
have fun
I used to have a squirrel named squeaky

You are going to need to bottle feed them to start. If I recall correctly I fed mine powdered calf replacement milk. Once they get bigger you can feed the 30 % protein cat food or various dry foods. I named mine Leroy. My neighbor had one named Tyrone.
Are they reasonable pets? Should he try to raise them or call animal control?

I used to bartend at parlays on Harrison there was this old lady that came in every day with her pet raccoon. He’d sit up on the bar and eat popcorn while she got pickled
coons are smart and can be trained but you have to work at it
