Hi, I think this little one lost his momma, I found him today - he was in the same location for several hours and I was told that he had been there for 2 days. I wasn’t sure if I should intervene so I kept an eye on him hoping that he would climb to a nest or somewhere safe at night. That didn’t happen so I made him a bed in a box and that is where he is now, safe and warm. I am trying to figure out if he is old enough to be on his own, am hoping people can weigh in with opinions on age… for reference the little plastic cup next to him is a small fage yogurt cup (5.3 oz)
Any guesses on age? I just ordered a squirrel house that I am going to put in a tree, do you think he is old enough to be on his own?
Thanks for your help everyone!!! (Sorry about the pic I can’t figure out how to rotate it!)
