Hi, I have 3 baby greys appx 8-9 weeks, I have a few questions about helping them be ready for release.
They will be around the 12 weeks mark at the end of October, I live in the UK in the north of England, would it be OK to release them here at that time of the year or should I over winter them?
Also, what can I do to help them be ready for the wild? Ie, stop handling them, giving them the materials to build nests, soil to bury nuts or is that all something they would figure out themselves upon release?
I unfortunately can't release in my own garden as I live in a built up area near a main road, I will likely soft release them in a friend's garden so I need them to be as prepared as possible.
