    I'm not an expert, just a foster mom, but seeing the way their tails are curling up over their backs, I'd guess at least 5 -6 weeks old or so.
    If they are still a bit wobbly on their feet... likely 5 weeks. A little more sturdy and rambunctious, 6 weeks or so.

    Perhaps a more experienced squirrel lover can give you a more precise answer. But that is what my guess is.

    They are very very cute!!

    Eyes open at ~ 5 weeks.
    When did their eyes open?
    My guess would be 7 weeks.

    They are so cute. They look very similar to the 5 siblings I'm caring for and my wack pack is about 5 1/2 - 6 weeks old.

    I'd say 6 weeks-ish, as well. Adorable!
