Can you take a picture? If it is a baby mouse, I'm guessing the parents are somewhere in your home. If the baby is alive but lethargic, you probably will want to take it to a vet. I encourage you to register so you can take full advantage of the board (posting in all the forums). It's fast, and it's free!

this is how I found our first baby glider when she came out of pouch Waqs your glider pregnant? You need to go to the petstore or walmart and get some Esbilac puppy or kitten formula, but first hold in your hands and get warm, give a dab of honey or karo syrup on tongue (a DAb only)

i think she is talking about a baby glider. I emailed her and asked for a phone number. Any further emergency advice other than getting glucose up, baby warm and trying to find out if her glider was pregnant? first?

ok just talked on the phone with her. a breeder gave her mom and unneutered son and said it was no big deal. I have her going to get esbilac, she is actually here in town with me.

Here's Suz page on Hand Raising A Joey. I don't know if this will be necessary or if the mother will take the joey back and care for it. Sorry, I have no experience with babies. Please let us know how things are going.

Wow..that must have been a shocker!!
I guess the mom isn't interested in the joey? Would she take it back?
Good thing she's in the same town as you Beth...she must be pretty overwhelmed with that little surprise!!

i am sooo glad she was in memphis- she even stopped by to get formula. its warm and eating, now sleeping. a bit dehydrated but not yellow at all. its kind of a little miracle if it makes it- we had my male neutered and lost our only joey 2 days oop, so it'd be kind of wonderful for me if it makes it.

Definitely keep the baby warm, and it will need to be fed frequently. In addition to Suz's site, here are a couple of newsletters with information that might help you: Hand Rearing Orphaned / Abandoned Joeys - Part I Hand Rearing Orphaned / Abandoned Joeys - Part II Ideally you can put the joey back with the parents, but if the momma rejects it, you will need to either try to hand raise it, or supplement feed if the parents will care for it a bit.

thatd be great, thank you so much! Right now I have a little amoeba in my bra! This little man ? has NO hair at all, one ear flipped and one down, in a ball he's the size of a large gumball. How premature do you think he is?
Smudge and Darby (my other fuzzies, know something's up. They lost thier first joey a few months ago, and they're very curious as to why I have this thing. lol
