Hello. I am a new(ish) rehabber in Georgia, for Atlanta and areas north of there.
I have rehabbed squirrels before... 5 litters totaling 11 squirrels.. all less than 5 weeks with one set of 3 pinks.
Now that I am (fully) retired I have more time to dedicate to 3am feedings, so I am stepping up my game.
Happy to say I have had a 100% health rate, and a 91% success with soft release.
(One little monster decided to pick the door lock an hour after her cage moved outside).
Ironically, she was the only one that decided to stay in the area, and has had 4 litters in the eaves of my house.
(I could not get her to move out, and had to build her a balcony, and mesh ladder for her babies)
And she has spent 3 years taunting my dogs by dropping nuts and pine cones on their heads.
(She literally climbs out over them and lines up the shot before dropping them).
I have stocked up on Fox valley, Esbilac, Powdered electrolyte, and dropped my name at several pet and feed stores.
Lets see what this fall season brings.
Best to all of you and your babies.
