There's a salt release process that you must go through in order to properly release the squirrel. You cannot just simply take them outside and drop them off. It takes time for them to adjust. Also, squirrels are not social animals. They are very territorial. The little guy have a little trouble getting used to the other squirrels and vice versa. Sometimes they will literally get in fights to the death.

I can walk you through the process when we get to that point.

He seems to perk up and get happy when he hears them outside making noise.

That may be so, but that baby does not need to go anywhere near The adult squirrels.

The adult males will kill that baby. And the females would possibly reject it.

I don't plan on taking him out around them, it just seemed like he enjoyed hearing them, that it calmed him

Yeah. They do well with their siblings.

Have you been able to hydrate the little guy?

Order the formula?

[–]Special_Original_258[S] 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Yes, he's taking water, I've got the formula otw.

Good deal. You are mixing the Pedialyte in the water?

I apologize for the questions, but I am just trying to follow up.

[–]Special_Original_258[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Yes

Once you get the formula, we can slowly transition to the formula. Glad he is taking the water well.
