Fascinating how they have all that space but they have to squish together

[@dogsareawomansbestfriend]

Warmth!

[@mybackyardfriends7326]

Yep. This was in March, and in our parts it’s still cold

They are keeping each other warm. The light appears to be keeping them awake..

[@steveo89]

The light helps keep predators away. It doesn't keep them awake.

We made the box with warm material in it and cut a hole on the side because it was going to snow, hoping one Squirrel at least would find warmth!

[@anastaia820]

I just had a squirrel move into a box on my deck! I think it is a girl. She has been in there now for 4 or 5 nights. She comes into our kitchen to eat and lets us pet her. She will not allow any other Squirrels near her nest, who come up also to eat. She is huge, could she be pregnant? Its Dec on the west coast.

Thanks for watching!

I wish I were able find the nest where Puppy lives. She's had babies and it'll be a few more days before she comes here for food. (Have learned this years ago!)

[@mybackyardfriends7326]

We’ve gotten lucky with this house. We’ve now had two sets up pups in there. Looking forward to sharing that video soon!

How do squirrels arrange staying in the same nest? Are they siblings? Are they mating? I ask because they are pretty territorial.

[@mybackyardfriends7326]

Depends the time of year. If it’s mating season the most dominant takes over the nest. But during colder season they will pile in and keep warm together. Most times being family though. Like a mom and most her pups. But once it’s time where she’s in heat she’ll secure the nest and kick everyone out.

@@mybackyardfriends7326 interesting.. fascinating critters.

[@InFltSvc]

These are nothing but fancy rats! They destroy everything. They ate the outside rafters on my garden shed. I have killed eight of them so far. People need to stop feeding them

[@mybackyardfriends7326]

Thanks for watching my fancy rat video. Much appreciated

[@InFltSvc]

@@mybackyardfriends7326 absolutely! I just killed two of them today
