My wife brought 2 baby squirrels to our rented house 2 days ago, She took them away from one of the workers building our house -- next to a natural area. She also released a mature squirrel which had been trapped by the same guy. All hands have been warned to "leave our animals be or we will banish you from the property permanently"

I really don't like to see animals or birds in cages.

The guy climbed a tree and took the babies from their nest after hearing their calls. They are about the size of my thumb -- eyes not open yet. Wife has been hand feeding them soy milk -- 4-5 times per day.

What I'm wondering is at what stage of development should we return them to the wooded area. The house will not be finished for another 6-7 months. If they hang around our garden (after house is built), they would be fine. At our last place we had 2 feeding and watering stations and plan on a large feeding station at the new house.

Any and all advice appreciated
