Hi guys I have been on the site before... last march when I found 3 orphaned babies and raised and released them. Now I am back with 4 new babies that were found, very very small. Pink no fur eyes closed probably 3-4 days at the oldest. I am currently pregnant and don't really know if its safe for me to be handling babies at this time. So I was wondering if there is anyone that would be willing to take and raise these babies in New Jersey. I will travel to bring them to you. Thanks

IF you can't find someone in NJ, I'm right across the river in PA (about an hour from Trenton).

kbo313 :Welcome back. there should be no problem that I know of with you handling the babies. Someone should be along soon and hopefully we can find a rehabber in NJ for you.
If you can't find one in NJ I have a stepson that lives in NJ and is coming home this weekend if you would like me to take them.

ive been researching all morning and cant find much about pregnant women handling baby squirrels. If it isn't dangerous then I would keep them and raise them like I did the last 3. It was very fullflilling to watch them grown and let them back into the wild. I still see my babies every now and then in the yard and it makes me smile. I am totally willing and able to care for them so if anyone has any info on pregnancy and squirrels if its safe lol let me kno thanks for all ur help guys

Just saw this. I would take these babies if I could but I cannot right now. I hope someone can take them. Please keep us updated.

I wouldnt be able to help either, I wouldnt be able to feed 4 pinkies with my schedule. The Rehabbers I am aware of in this area are still far from Jackson, but I will be willing to call them, they do have designated people that will pick up the babies. (IF they are willing with the distance). Let me know, it seems a few members are willing to take them though. I would rather see a member take them, so they would be in the best of hands. :Love_Icon
