Oh and I forgot- you will have to stimulate the urine and BMs until about 3 months. BM stimulation will take A LOT longer, 10-15 minutes. Also the BM will not come everyday for a week or two (about the time the eyes open they will need to eliminate fecal matter everyday, sometimes twice a day but it will be easier to stimulate). And it should look yellow-ish. When they start eating solids it will be the normal brown. But do not let it go for more than three days, constipation is very hard on baby raccoons. The lack of noises is a good thing, it was probably calling for mom, and now just calls for food. Raccoons also get depressed easily, so it might not be vocal for a while. But it will be soon!!!
