They truly are amazing. I know because I rescued one in front of my house and and nursed back to health. One thing I can say about them they are persistent and don't give up on what they put their mind to. I also the outdoor ones I tap on the sliding door and they come to the deck for food. One of them eats out of my hand and comes in the house but goes back out. They bring such Joy. Every morning I also feed the birds even pigeons.

We don't have Squirrels in Australia, how nice that you all raised them and gave them such a kinda start to life, I truly appreciate your kindness. x

OMG so cute and you all took such loving care of them! Thank you.

Adorable! I have been raising two baby squirrels for almost 8 weeks....Jake and Daisy. Thanks for sharing that.

What a lovely family! Thank you so much for saving their lives and rescuing these Angels. So cute!!!!❤️❤️🐿🐿🐿💤💤

Aww so cute... thanks for being so gentle and caring with them.

They are absolutely adorable and you raised them well.... I have a pet Gray Squirrel that's named Geoff. He is just about a year old now and he found us when he was around 4 weeks old. He is a runt whereas he is nowhere near as big as a full grown one and they are full grown between 9 and 12 months. He has a partially paralyzed front left paw. So needless to say, Geoff will be with us living inside for the duration. He knows nothing of the outside so absolutely loves it in the house and he gets along great with our 2 cats and 2 dogs. Everyone that comes over falls in love with Geoff - What's not too love... :) You can see him here on my channel. I definitely need to upload some more recent video of him.

There is something in these kind acts to even the most seemingly insignificant creatures that is so wonderful. It's just amazing to me to see such compassion and caring in this world. To treat the creation with kindness and respect is to reverence the Creator. Well done!

I wish I would have come across this vid 6 yrs ago when I rescued a little squirrel from a cat. He wouldn't leave me after that so I took him home w me and fed him veggie and fruit baby food and he loved it. He already had all his fur but was still just a little guy. A week later we brought him back to my fams house where I found him in the 1st place and his 2 brothers were running around the yard and when they saw him w us they came over to play too lol. None of them had any fear of us and climbed all over everyone. I took those 2 home w/ us as well and tried taking care of them the same as we did the 1st 1 since he'd been doing very well. I put them to bed in a box outside that I put my jacket into so they could snuggle in. The next day the original 1 we had was still doing great but the 2 brothers had gotten sick somehow and seemed to have trouble breathing 😢 I didn't know what to do for them so just tried keeping them warm and comfy hoping they'd recover but they unfortunately didn't. I'm wondering if maybe we unknowingly fed them too much too fast and it went down the wrong pipe and got them sick. Still to this day I feel awful about those 2 not making it, but also glad that the original 1 grew up and was doing just fine living on his own outside last we saw him. This vid would have likely helped us so we'd have known what to do and not do and the other 2 babies would have made it. Hoping to have the opportunity again someday

That's a lot of work...bless you. I just had a young squirrel run up to me with one of my cats pouncing on it like a toy. It came up sat down in front of me and let me pick it up...it is settled in a chicken coupe and your video will help me see how small it really is...thanks. curled up it fits in my hands like a tennis ball.

What a delightful video and a wonderful family who love animals. Kindness and love win.

Ok any ways they are so cute and I hope you find some more to rescue and keep doing your job have a good day

of all the info out there...this was the most informative x

I cut down a apple tree earlier today and when I got home I find this baby chipmunk in a piece of the wood well after reading all the comment 's I phoned up a animal recue society here in Calgary Im feeling like that will be his best chance in life

Thanks Jennifer - nice to see you aiding our little furry friends.

thank you for looking after these poor little animals

I had one as a pet. His name was Eto lol... cutest thing ever, played like a cat but boy was he messy... I'd take him out for walks and would let him climb things in hopes that he would want to live free.. and he did.. awesome experience.

I'm so glad you thought to include those links, WAPTek. The squirreltales site is exactly the one we used to learn how to care for our babies. It had very timely, thorough, and helpful information. We're now enjoying second generation squirrels in the backyard. Although neither they nor their mama will let us touch them, they still come daily to eat the nuts and seeds we put out for them.

Great video, thanks for posting. We found a baby yesterday, estimating him to be around 5 weeks old. He is eating well, although we had to mix pedialyte and puppy formula to get him started...

Awesome Flanders family

What a wonderful show!

man this is awesome Raising the squirrels It's like raising ur babe They deserve to be love so much and alott of care :)

Just found a wounded 10'week old squirrel. Taking him to the vet than the rehabilitation centre. I'll be sad to see him go but happy that he's back in the wild!

Cutness overload. Lovely little things. 🥰

Love your video! Thankyou for your kindness God Bless you

Simply amazing and informative and heartwarming. Thanks

they are so cute and I love squirrels

Squirrels look so cute

Thanks for sharing, I really enjoyed it!

I remembered the first time I started feeding these critters; I thought that was the end of it. Now it seems that I've made permanent friends.

What a beautiful,and great caring video.I also love squirrels very much,and also think,they are very cute,adorable,and intelligent animals,who also deserve to exist,and be allowed to live peacefully with the rest of humanity,and not used as target practice,as some hateful,evil,and retarded people enjoy doing.They should never be mistreated,killed, neglected,or abused,like many times,I've seen it happen.Because the squirrels also play an important role in our environment,nature,and should always be treated with caring respect.Kudos to the Flanders family for doing an excellent job in caring,loving,and also giving these squirrels, a caring home to live in.I hope this video continues to inspire other people,to treat all their animals,in the best caring way possible.Well done,and please continue to share more great videos like this one.

You guys are awesome thank you

Very Well Done Video -- Appreciating Life One Moment at a Time . . .

So cute love this! 🐿️🐿️🐿️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️✌️✌️✌️🌍

Your squirrels are so calm, mine is very hyper, always moving, but he is still young yet. Im transitioning him to my 6 acre property. I take him outside almost everyday and he runs into the trees. We have lots of predators and squirrel bots. I feel bad for his chances but feel he needs to be free and maybe meet Mrs. Squirrel. I was trying to figure out how to bathe him. He hates water, except to drink. Hes sweet but just really hyper.

Super... Iam indian... Kerala ❤🌹🌹🌹

Mashaa Allah vary nice

Awwwwww

Haha i Loved 😭😍

There's a website you can look up, it sells Fox Squirrel formula. it was cheap and great for my bud when he was little.

What love. 🙂

The best milk replacer formula for baby squirrels is by Fox Valley Nutrition. This is what the wildlife rehabilitators use. The recommended food for squirrels that have been weened are squirrel blocks, as they are designed to be nutritiously complete for squirrels.

I kept mine, he is almost 6 years old. They can live 20 years in captivity. In Florida I had to get a license.

I found a baby one today fell out of a tree in the cold hardly breathing so I'm keeping it there's to there names are bitbit and Dolly.

Wow 👍👍you're good gob👏👏👍

I have a squirrel named poptart and he is silly his mom and foster mom were ate by a hawk

Loved the vid but just a surgesstion, slow down the subtitles a little bit.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Is that the "im a big kid now" song in that back haha

Dear Flanders Family, I love how you did the Video recording and Editing. How did you learn this? My only ask on top of the question is can you leave the written narrating up longer? Even though i speed read that was reading in a dash.

I miss my Rocky girl

❤🐿❤🐿

I raised a baby squirrel he was so much fun. They have to eat every 2 hours and my vet told me to feed him cats milk. You can buy it at Walmart in a can.

It must have been a hell of cleaning but they are really cute :-)

Hi there Jennifer, I just found what looks like a 4-5 week old baby squirrel near my front door. She was actually clinging to the garage door when we found her. I have no experience with squirrels and I am very concerned for her well-being. I have reached out to rehabilitators in my area but being in NYC I am not sure how quickly I will hear back from them. My main concerns are 1. She seems to be very exhausted 2. I can easily see that she has critters on her (fleas maybe?) 3. I have nothing to feed her for the night. I know it is a long shot but I thought I would reach out to you in the case you see this tonight and can give me some advice. Thank you so much and what a nice video you shared with us! Thank you! - J

น่ารัก

That was awesome u guy's, do u still have them? They r so adorable n yup I can imagine how sharp their nails r cause I have Rats n they have very sharp n pointy nails too!.. lol

little piglets. squirrel moms are very good at their job.

Flanders, I have at least two babies (~7weeks) in a nesting box. Haven’t seen momma in 3 days. I’m climbing a ladder to give them puréed apples. Don’t know what to do. Noticed big black crows circling the tree when one popped out to eat! Should I bring them in???

i have some in the woods near my house, but i cant attract them :/ whats the best way? i just wanted to feed them abit and try to take some pictures

When did they start eating solids ?

My brother found a baby squirrel on my porch this morning and it was just born yesterday

For people searching for information on what to do once you've found an orphaned baby squirrel: Pick up orphaned squirrels and put them in a warm place. Put them in a box with a towel in it . Place a towel on top of a heating pad which is set to LOW. Put the box on top of the towel which covers the heating pad. Find a wildlife rehabilitator and take them there. Squirrels cannot survive on cows' milk as they have different nutritional requirements. They need formula specifically for squirrels until 9 weeks of age to avoid metabolic bone disease which will permanently disfigure them and will cause seizures/death. If no wildlife centers are close to you, carefully follow directions on: www.orphanedwildlifecare.com/squirrelcare.htm#13 Hairless Infant squirrels must be very slowly fed every 2 hours. Be prepared to slowly feed infant squirrels with fur at least 5x/day (every 3 hours during daylight) until they are almost an adult size. You will need insulin syringes and very tiny nursing nipples. www.orphanedwildlifecare.com/squirrelcare.htm#13 This site sells formula, syringes, and nipples. The owner ships quickly and internationally. www.foxvalleynutrition.com/product-lines/feeding-supplies/miraclenipples/ Other appropriate nipples: www.squirrelsandmore.com/rehab-supplies/nipples-and-feeding-bottles/catac-nipples.html (ST1 for infants below 4 weeks of age) I do not recommend feeding squirrels the formula as the following site states, but it might not immediately kill your baby squirrels while you are waiting a few days for more appropriate formula from Fox Valley Nutrition to be mailed to you. www.squirrelnutrition.com

I have 2 babies around 4 to 5 weeks. Unsure of weight. Eyes open fully furred and top teeth just started showing. How much do I need to feed and how often? Everything online says something different. They are eating around 3cc every 3 to 4 hours now. One is a lot smaller as he was injured from the fall so have to force feed him bit he is getting better. I just want to make sure I am feeding enough. Thank you

hi....i am having two baby squirrels...do they drink milk...there eyes were opened and playing...

so swèet

Fantastic video! Glad you released them. Are the boys twins? They sure look alike! They will be your friends for a long time. Protect them from cats! I love cats, but hate to see them kill squirrels.

coool

MashAllah

Hi I raise squirrels and release them too, right now I have 7, 5 of them from one family, could you please tell me what that dark green thing was that baby was eatting 🙂 thanks, I did sub and like, I enjoy watching squirrels whenever and I loved your video ✌💕🙏

At what age do baby squirrels start eating solid food? Did you ever trim their nails?

+Jennifer Flanders Hello, Jannifer. I am so glad I found your video! I need your help, if you are willing! My name is Annah. Yesterday, while on a walk, I found a baby squirrel in a large empty gutter. It's eyes are barely open, and it's probably about three inches long, including the tail, and MAYBE one inch wide if even that. From the nipples located on it's stomach, I assume it's a girl (we named her Berry). She has mostly been sleeping in a large warm (and clean) fluffy sock. She really seems to like it. Last night I went to the store and got her some pedialyte. I gave it to her a couple of times that night and multiple times today. I also bought a puppy milk-replacement powder and have given it to her a few times today. Do you have any advice concerning Berry or anything you would recommend that I do? ~Annah

I have squirrels!!!

is there a way u can help menraise one?? i found obe trying to get them to there mome thars near but theres a lot of noise..im giving puppybformula

how you make this video frame by frame

Will they chew on your furniture? How do you solve that?

The Squirrel we found this morning on my porch makes noises a lot

Awww! Even if they stay with you in your yard and act "domesticated", that's still a better fate than killed on an interstate somewhere...happens way too much.

Hi What does you use as a feeding tube...? Kind regards from Denmark
