Little peanut! Any age speculation??

[kaatybird]

Hi! First I'd like to thank you guys for this site and allowing me to join! its been a tremendous help, and a special thanks to my little one's "aunt" Cheyenne from TX, who actually directed me to the site. Without you guys I don't think I would have known how to help my little girl make it! :) That being said I was wondering if anyone could help me approximate her current age??

She was found on Saturday the 31st and this is the first picture I took of her:213973

Today is (obviously) the fifth day she has been in my care, and here is a picture from this morning: 213974


Any ideas from anyone? Not that it matters it was more of a curiosity question! BTW she is exactly 25 grams as of this afternoon and an active little nugget of love!! :grin2:Love_Icon:Love_Icon

Little weighs 25 grams

I advised Kaatybird to feed 5%-7% of littles body weight.
came out to be 1.25cc-1.75 cc :grin

Here are some helpful age charts. The fox squirrel one shows the weights expected at ages as well and can coincide with the eastern grays...Looks like you are right on track with your little peanut.
