Hi, well this is some improvement, but I have more info to help clarify things.
This looks like a 20 cc syringe, and that's still too big because more will squirt out and potentially get into lungs. It is a real improvement on the dropper, though, because that will aspirate more often than not.
This is the recommended size https://www.amazon.com/3ml-Syringe-Only-Luer-Slip/dp/B01DARUHSY/ref=sr_1_8_a_it?rps=1&ie=UTF8&qid=1536976956&sr=8-8&keywords=oral+syringes+3ml&refinements=p_85%3A2470955011 I picked one that is shipped by prime because you can get them shipped fast that way. I know it seems like a lot of syringes, but for the price... buy the 100. They wear out after a couple of days, at most. As soon as they drag it is time to recycle them because that drag will cause you to sometimes squirt and potentially aspirate. Also, the 100 pack is of the type that fits this comfortable nipple, if you want to get that, too https://www.amazon.com/Miracle-Nipple-Regular-Size-2-pack/dp/B00TKCPY14/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1536977347&sr=8-6&keywords=miracle+nipple
​
Here is a video with some elevator music demonstrating proper feeding position https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9640tFXD4Wo
​
Also check out this photo from one of our members. She got the nice miracle nipples there https://i.redd.it/w63fcgtl7vl11.jpg That is a good feeding position.
​
So feeding from the position where the syringe is above the baby risks aspiration, and feeding with a syringe that large does that same. You get points for effort, however.
​
Get that stuff, modify your technique and all will hopefully be fine. She will adjust to the new size and position quickly. You'll see.
​
For a girl this size you will have to give more than one 3 ml syringe per feeding, I think. Personally, I always nurse them until they refuse more. You can fill up more than one and put them in a cup of hot water to keep them warm and ready to give to her. That way they won't get cold even htough they are smaller.
Looks like three in my county so I'll be sure to call tomorrow but cant travel until the afternoon (work).
Based on the info linked, they were all wrinkly too. I just don't know if I gave them enough liquids.
I used something like this: https://www.amazon.com/KINGLAKE-Transfer-Pipettes-Essential-Graduated/dp/B00WLIQHQ0/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?keywords=plastic+pipettes&qid=1566439865&s=gateway&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEyWUJPUVUxOUExUjg3JmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwMjI0MDI0U1dINEVLSjdNWDFDJmVuY3J5cHRlZEFkSWQ9QTAxMTMzODdENlA3OUdUMVpWNTcmd2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGYmYWN0aW9uPWNsaWNrUmVkaXJlY3QmZG9Ob3RMb2dDbGljaz10cnVl
Each got maybe half to 3/4 of one those (not full, just up the stem), 3 times.
They really haven't moved much since they settled. I'm just not sure if I should do something like try and stimulate or try and feed.
Also, im not sure about the heating. I have a lamp well above them. I have an infrared thermometer thats reading 89f on top of the tshirt that's currently covering them.
It probably wont drop below 75 tonight. I have them on my back porch, safe from any critters and not in the AC
Do you have a sound you've been using to identify yourself?
Your stories are funny. This is quite an adventure. It kind of reminds me of a book I read called "Squirrels at My Window: Life With a Remarkable Gang of Urban Squirrels" about the squirrels she feeds outside her New York window.
https://www.amazon.com/Squirrels-My-Window-Remarkable-Urban/dp/1555662579
I highly recommend it if you enjoy squirrels.
Wow! Out of all the rungs he could of ran between he chose the one with a squirrel behind it lol. I used to leave a big pile of food in this https://www.amazon.com/Stokes-Select-Squirrel-Feeder-Capacity/dp/B000LNTY7Q ,but now I only hand feed to make sure they all eat. Many times I used to see 1 squirrel sitting in front of the food eating and chasing away all the others.
In the category of "other stuff", our little guys like this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001U8FO8E/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Decent nutrition and they munch on it randomly. (Walnuts are great, and we try to make sure they have some balance.)
lol I recently bought clickers on Amazon for this express purpose. Haven't tested them out yet, but will be excited to do so soon!

Ok what you want then is an "excluder". A one-way gate that lets critters out...
Here's a squirrel size one ....not a cage ...the other end is open. That's just one...I'm sure there are other kinds of one way devices...
I ordered this and it just arrived today!

I envision myself going into my front yard and using the little mallet to ring the chime like I'm a yoga instructor signaling that class has started, and all the squirrels will come hopping over and I'll be like "a walnut for you, namaste 🙏🏼", and my neighbors will be peering from their windows like "...the fuck is she doing?"
https://www.amazon.com/Miracle-Nipple-Mini-Wildlife-Syringe/dp/B00SQIHIJO/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=Miracle+Nipple&qid=1569501342&s=gateway&sr=8-2 This is a good one to use. The ones sold in pet stores for dogs and cats aren't usually the right size.
OP, the first thing you should do is feed them small amounts of Pedialyte, or equivalent. Do not use Gatorade or other sports drinks. They are most likely dehydrated, and need electrolyte replacement. This is what I was instructed to do when I found a baby squirell. You will most likely need to use an eye dropper to feed them, but based on their size, you might consider a small baby bottle.
