I thought about posting this in the "not so spineless wonders" forum but these are not pets. I found them in my yard a few days after finding a dead squirrel in the road. (I assume that the dead squirrel was their mom because it was found near to the abandoned nest that these little guys and girls fell out of.)

These first two pics are a male and female that I found.

These next three are of their brother that was discovered in the same location a few days later.

Finally a video of the baby male found alone.
The first two squirrels have already been taken to the local vet who is a wildlife rehabilitator. The other little guy will join his siblings there as soon as the office opens this morning.
All of the squirrels were healthy and free of external parasites. The lone male was pretty dehydrated when I found him but he has been given 4-6cc's of Pedialyte every 2-4hours and has perked up considerably.
Hope you enjoy the pictures and video.:)

Until they're ready for solid food they get Esbilac puppy formula. I also give them Pedialyte to drink.

So you are keeping it at home? I seem to remember somebody did that say they have so much energy and one can trash an entire room quickly!
