I have a male squirrel, Macgyver, who was the only survivor from a fallen nest during hurricane Laura. A friend found him in her yard and I took him to bottle feed. I am guessing he was 2 weeks old at that time since his eyes began to open about 2 weeks afterwards. My question is in regards to him being outside during the day. When he started wanting to go outside I gradually introduced to the outside world so that he wasn't so scared. I have a HUGE oak tree about 15 or so feet from my back carport and for the past several days he spends the daylight hours running all over it. There r no other squirrels in that tree or on my acre of land. I live a few acres from a patch of woods and thats where most of them stay. Anyway, Macgyver comes to my back door every evening at dusk to be let back in for the night. Does anyone else have experience with this? I'm curious how long he will come back in at night? I WANT him to keep coming in! Lol. But I know he will eventually stop. I put food and a few nuts out on low areas of the tree so he can snack outside too. Any advice or comments welcome! Sorry such a long post.
