Hi,
Just rescued a 5 week old from 2 crows who were attacking him. He had a peck wound on his forehead (no blood), bloody nose and mouth. He also had a bloody wound on his tail. Is anyone aware of any particular disease threats from crows?
I put bacitracin on his tail and gave him a dose of Baytril, just-in-case. I've had him 2 1/2 days, now. He's eating 6 cc's Fox Valley 5 times a day. He's peeing and pooping normally. None of his limbs are broken. No seizures and no sign of abnormal movement, as yet, so I'm thinking if he did get a concussion, he's revering w/o any critical signs.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

Thank you so very much, and whoever said that after you get one squirrels ... others seem to follow, WOW. You guys weren't kidding. I have 4 squirrels, now. One is big and healthy enough to release now that he's fattened up a bit. He was just in the wrong place (where a bunch of feral cats lived behind a shopping mall) and I've found a lovely territory for him with people who put water and
