I'm looking for a Baby Squirrel Development Chart, week by week.
Haven't found it yet on TSB so I've found this:

:confused: What do experts here say? Is it good?

I know such charts are usually approximative, though.

Many of us at TSB use Chris's Squirrel & More chart to tell the age of squirrels & it gives development at each particular age.
