I've searched your forum and haven't found answers as to when...

... will my babies open thier eyes?
... will my babies be able to feed themselves?
... when will they be able to take care of thier own bodily functions?
... will I be able to sleep through the night without needing to get up to feed them?

Here's a link to pics of my little ones : http://thesquirrelboard.com/forums/showthread.php?t=39693

They open their eyes between 4 & 6 weeks old.

... will my babies be able to feed themselves?
you can start to offer them squirrel block (HHB) at 7 weeks old

... when will they be able to take care of their own bodily functions?
you should help them with their potty needs until they are around 6 weeks old.

... will I be able to sleep through the night without needing to get up to feed them?
you can start to spread their feedings out to every 5 hours when they are around 7 weeks old --and skip their night feeding.
