Look what I got! Hubby's uncle was working and had to cut down a limb that had fallen part the way on a roof. There was a nest and these 2 fell out so he brought them to me. Love baby squirrels, it's been years since I had one. They are fun, but man they have some sharp claws.


Awwww...I've raised a couple of batches of these little guys, too....but never that young!  And yeah, their claws are very sharp  sad.png  I had a batch get out of their cage one time while I owasn't home.  I looked all over for them, panicked.  I finally sat down on the couch to think, and low and behold, out of the couch cushions they came!  Little buggers were hiding barnie.gif

I have sold goat milk to people for all kinds of critters, and I've fed it to all sorts of critters.  My vet would call me for colostrum from time to time, too.  It saved my horses life...got him at 6 wks old, half dead on his feet.  He learned where the stuff came from, as well as my milking schedule.  He'd stand outside the milk room looking in, watching me squeeze out his next meal...lol.  To this day, at age 5, he'll still drink milk out of a bucket!

Uh, yeah...I've paid way more than that for chicken eggs, too...shipped!  And you know what kind of gamble shipped eggs are

Daria: Could you possibly be referring to the harsh light of reality?

Night!

 

Why don't sheep shrink in the rain?

 

 

Why is there brail at drive up ATMs??

 

 

Why are their floatation devices instead of parachutes in my airplain seat???

 

 

If a tree falls in the woods and my husband doesn't hear it, am I still wrong????

I'm hanging out as late as I can since my last Toulouse looks to be internally pipping and I want to move it to hatcher. African #1 is making good progress. Not sure if it will start zipping before morning. Still no visible pips on the other 3, but they are all looking good.

Now if ya get all of one color and don't want a few.  I would be happy to take a few off your hands.  I mean, I would hate for you to waste the space on just one color.  So no problem helping you out that way.
