    Default Rehabber needed near Atlanta GA

    I'm looking for someone to possibly take on these two babies I got today. They are both male, both have their eyes open or somewhat open. They have sort of taken to formula, one more than the other.
    One is smaller and much more energetic, loud, and feeds well, the larger one is quiet and sleeps most of the time so far.

    I found them at work (I work at a large park), very early this morning. No idea if they fell from the nest last night or this morning. My coworkers and I left the area and waited 8 hours before coming back to see if the mother had taken them. Unfortunately not. No squirrels were even interested in them.
    I'm pretty sure the mother was killed, there are a TON of hawks here and we typically see more than one with a squirrel in its grasps daily.

    I have the ability to raise them myself, but it is a LOT of time and care I just really can't dedicate right now to them. I can keep them for a week or so, but really need someone to take them.
    Please pass the word around!

    Thank you for helping these babies. Are you feeding Esbilac puppy formula?

    Can you describe the general part of Atlanta you are located?

    Are you able to assist with transporting them if we find a member in your area?

    Once we have those details we find someone to help...

    Yes, I picked some up on my way home. I just threw my Foxvalley out last month from the last baby unfortunately.
    I'm near Loganville Georgia, the east side of Atlanta, and can meet anywhere if it means finding them a good person.
    For now I'll have them with me daily to feed them while at work so I can probably meet at any time as well.

    Hi Kwill

    Spanky asked me to jump in on this thread.

    I rehab squirrels on Lake Lanier, just north of you.
    I can pick up both and release them in my area at 16 weeks old.
    I am stocked on Fox Valley, etc...

    I am going to send you my phone number in a private message, so we can arrange meeting up.

    - Alan

    Kwill... it it is necessary... I CAN drive down tonight, and pick them up at 1am or 2am if that is your only opening.
    Or we can do it anytime that you would be home.

    Babies are doing fine.
    Hydrated for 5 hours, and then back on formula, eating 5% every 4 hours.
    I will be adding a sister to the tub this morning.
