Hes silver.  From show quality stock.  Hopefully he will be a good breeder for my SQ hen I have.  The drake I have isn't the best, but hes not bad at all

ROFL!

ive raised coons .

had one last year actually but never a squirrel

 

 

I had a squirrel a few years ago. He was older though, with his eyes open already. They have fun personalities but super sharp teeth and claws which they use a lot, but are being playful when they do. Parker's favorite game was to run up and bite my arm at 3 a.m. I'd wake up and fling my arm and he'd go flying across the room then run back and keep doing it until he got tired of it.

duck calls? Or call ducks?

Fiona will have yellow poo.  

 

No I don't remember.  So.. but I thought you had 2 out?  
 

 

Precious.  

 

My cousin raised coons.  And an alligator.    (Crazy Cousin Danny... He's my bogan cousin.. LOVE him.)

 

I had a gator. Does that mean I'm officially crazy and not just a crazy chicken/duck lady?

I used puppy formula(esbilac) with the last one. He only was on formula for a few weeks when I got him though, he was older. Hoping it works with this one, it's hard to raise them this little.

They are adorable.  They make the cutest tiny little peeping sound, different than anything I've ever heard.  I totally want these in the house, just so I can hear them!  They are now all in a little 6 x 6 box w/a 25 watt bulb and a toddler sock that they keep crawling into and underneath of!  They are drinking from an antique salt celler with 2 marbles in it, and loving the game starter ran through the coffee grinder. 

They are used in zoos and poultry farms to pick up food under cages, and off the ground.  And you should see how big their feet are compared to them!  Its like a quail in snow shoes! LOL

If not then..... um..... you just print the order form send in a check with the order form and walla your order is placed.  

 

 

That's what I meant. Lol.

Well, that's cool!

Julie- Did you sleep with the alligator?   And did it live in your bathtub?  Just askin.  lmbo

This question wasn't for me, but Goat Milk! I've seen human babies raised on goat milk, foals,kittens, puppies, raccoons, squirrels etc..... all raised on goat milk and let me tell you they end up looking better than the babies on their own kinds milk.

I don't have any now.  I used to sell my goat milk to a family whos son couldn't have cows milk, and to various other folks, including a vet, for baby animals.  I wish I'd gad some for the squirrel.  We found him when he was only a day or two old.  He died at day 5.  :-(
