I am raising a 7 week old baby squirrel -- male. He is doing very good, and I am feeding him with a 1 cc syringe with a nipple at the end. He is very plump, and is starting to eat stage 1 baby applesauce.
I read on one site to release them at about 10 weeks, and on another site I ready to release them at about 18-20 weeks. BIG difference!
When can I release him?

P.S. I am sorta attached to him... how do I convince myself to release him? He is just SO tame and cuddly...
