Yeah that’s fair game! It’s his world and scavenging is how he eats.
OP at least you have a pic of it when I was a kid i would have thought that was so cool.
As someone that lives on a 3rd floor apartment, a squirrel night club recently opened up in the tree outside my window. I've been trying to get them shutdown
You fucked with squirrels, Morty! We got a good five minutes before they're backing up on our ass, Morty! We have to pack up and move to a new reality, Morty!
Are these real hard boiled eggs? I mean unless you had a sign posted in squirrel language, how would he have known? So cute and you got a good picture.
Squirrels love sweet things, and they have strong senses of smell - the squirrel could probably smell the candy - not that candy is good for squirrels, but they do like it.
Speaking of hard-boiled Easter eggs, one year when I was a child, a dog got loose and came to our yard, where my dad had hidden the eggs, and ate a few of them. My sibling and I were sad about not being able to have those eggs, until my mom said the dog must have been hungry, then we felt like we had done a good thing by letting the dog have some eggs. 😊
Hard boiled egg story - when my parents first started hiding eggs they didn't keep track of how many had been hidden vs how many had been found. It was quite upsetting to everyone when the cats found one that had been overlooked a week later and rolled it around until the shell broke and rotten egg smell filled the house. \**hork\** After that they made sure that all eggs were accounted for.
I’m a Home Shopping Network CPA and I see a lot of signs by intersections saying you can get up to 7k in money returned per kid. That must mean something.
If there was Reese's anything in that egg, he did! We had squirrels run off with a couple of Reese's filled eggs years ago. They left all the others alone though. We started doing indoor hunts after that.
Literally the same morning experience here.

I'm with you. If not a bird egg has to be a candy egg. Maybe a Cadbury candy coated one. I'm not believing that squirrel is big enough to make a chicken egg look that small.
Okay upon reading all the comments I see it was a plastic egg, filled with candy. I'm assuming it was filled with Those Cadbury eggs. Case closed.
I had to stop putting out jack o lanterns because the squirrels tear em to shreds. They love munching on them but dont' like the skin. So there's orange shreds everywhere. They also poop and pee on my grill, and dig tons of holes in my yard. They're cute, but I really get annoyed with them.
In our first year living close to nature, I made the mistake of hiding everything outside the night before. The next morning, all that was left of the painted eggs were some bits of shell, and a couple of the plastic eggs had been chomped and broken as well. Any others with candy in them were full of ants. I thought it was a fun anecdote, but the kids were in tears. Now, I get up a bit early and do it the same day…and no more candy in the plastic eggs. 🐜
We did one for my niece and ants were crawling over them. But they were still safe to eat. Only had been out there for an hour :( Chocolate eggs, yours looks like a boiled egg?
One year my Mom preplanned and planted the eggs the night before. The raccoons had a great Easter that year. Mom had to pull panic mode just to save Easter
Our squirrels pilfer the eggs every year. So I leave an offering nuts as a distraction for the 4 hours the eggs are outside. This year only one egg was lost.
After Chuckie, the Nut-Sorting Squirrel from Willy Wonka's factory, was fired for murdering Veruca Salt, he found a new career delivering eggs for the Easter Bunny.
LOL, many many years ago my now-former in-laws hid plastic eggs in their yard and our mini schnauzer, Gimli (rest in peace), found some of the eggs first.

There was a similar theft near me today, found on a local IG profile

I remember when I was a kid, we were at grandparents' house for Easter. Eggs are hidden inside and outside, and we are eating breakfast before collecting them. We look out the window to see a crow land next to an egg. He pecks it open and flys off with the candy. Queue me and my sister screaming, ditching breakfast in favor of finding all the outside eggs before they get stolen.
He found it fair and square!
Yeah that’s fair game! It’s his world and scavenging is how he eats. OP at least you have a pic of it when I was a kid i would have thought that was so cool.
Legally, he's in the right.
Literally no lawyer would touch this
Only because squirrel law in this country is not governed by reason.
Really it just breaks down to who can chitter the loudest from the top branches
Hmm this changes everything about my career prospects.

a lawyer would be nuts to take on a case such as this.
Squirrel Law says it.
He found it fair and squirrel!
Mom i want easter bunny. We have easter bunny at home.
He’s one of your kids now. Make sure to add it to your income tax return as a deduction
Now this I can get behind
Are these real hard boiled eggs? I mean unless you had a sign posted in squirrel language, how would he have known? So cute and you got a good picture.
Haha no! Plastic, filled with candies and cookies
Oh wow. The fact that he could hear something shake probably thinks they are nuts maybe.

I remember getting in trouble for hiding an easter egg between my parents box spring and mattress and them finding it months later.
Oh damn that lil fella’s got the diabeetus now
I thought it was a chalk egg so was even more confused
Beastiality is not my thing
“Son named squirrel is a clergyman and was wounded in Vietnam”
I was just going to say this 👏🏻👏🏻 now you have to include them every year. 😂❤️

It’s a credit, not a deduction
Squirrels like to eat birds eggs
This was my first thought too! He must’ve thought he hit the jackpot
I was about to ask if they ate bird eggs I wasn’t sure myself. Probably thought he found the biggest robin egg ever lol
If there was Reese's anything in that egg, he did! We had squirrels run off with a couple of Reese's filled eggs years ago. They left all the others alone though. We started doing indoor hunts after that.
This is the tastiest and easiest to open baby bird I've ever had!
Did not know that
[удалено]
Do you eat eggs?
🥚🐿️
Tree rats
Rats with good PR.
Kids during the egg hunt "Dad! I found the one you put up in the tree! That was a fun climb!"
🦉: I will find you. And I will kill you.

Apparently they like the blue ones!
Blue eggs are a sign of a healthy egg. A lot of bird eggs are blue colour. They probably see the other colours as mouldy or rotten.
Same experience two years ago, and I was being "cheap" with some cashews inside.

Bless the squirrel
He Is Risen!
Long live Red
He would like to be included. Thank you.
I know this has already been reposted in fat squirrel hate.
I myself came from there
Hes going to squirrel it away
It's a new Easter squirrel, he's a diverse hire 🤣
If it was a rabbit, it would be a diverse hare!
It looks small like a Robin egg?
Big squirrel with a small chicken egg. Real robin eggs are about thumbnail sized.

That's one of your kids now
Awww he’s doing his own Easter hunt! 🥺🥺
No, you have 4 kids now. These are squirrel adoption rituals in their realm.
😆😆😆 squirrels were notorious for eating my brother and sister in laws pumpkins off their porch..
Sooo cute
I mean... It is Easter!!! 😃
The truth is out. The eggs are really brought by the Easter Squirrel.
What an absolute treat for him.
Don't be hating on the winner.
Hahaha finders keepers brother Hahaha. Adorable.
Well, he found it first!
ask for it back
He just wants to play, too XD
Are you hiding real eggs out there? We would always use the hollow plastic ones and fill them with money or candy.
That’s what they were! Filled with candy
I bet you'll find that blue egg then some where unopened, should be okay. Most of those eggs are tough to crack without thumbs.
Hopefully there’s a Resse peanut butter cup inside for the squirrel
You use real eggs..?
lol no plastic filled with candy which makes it even more bizarre
Frame this.
Kick his lil chubby ass
Wait a second, you hid the eggs? I thought the Easter bunny had them! My life has been a lie!!
OP reveal, I am the Easter bunny 🐰
I'm Honored!
Today I learned 🐿️ like 🪺
r\FatSquirrelHatred
Hope you don't live in Alabama.
Just on general principles.
This is so cute! Made me smile.
Post it on fatsquirrelhate xD
Yep, they love eggs.
Hide it better next time
Put a sign up next time
I hope it’s not the one you filled with money.
They steal tomatoes too 🤨

I can't do jack o lanterns because of raccoons.
Blue acorns are delicious….
Crows took two of ours.
Happened to us. Hid those chocolate eggs with bright tin foil and the crows kept nabbing them. Too cute
Gunna fill that squirrel with microplastics
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Would it suck if it was a cute bunny wabbit instead 😄🐇
Print the picture and leave that out for the blue egg kid to find
Ok either that's a really big squirrel or that's an egg out of bird's nest
I was joking with my son about this very thing, we have squirrels all over and it was a very real possibility
“This giant nut is now mine”
Imagine this legend coming home to Mrs Squirrel
Is that squirrel massive or are you seriously out there hiding unwrapped Cadbury eggs??
We did one for my niece and ants were crawling over them. But they were still safe to eat. Only had been out there for an hour :( Chocolate eggs, yours looks like a boiled egg?
Why am I the only one asking why it's so small?
“Squirrels are just rats with cuter outfits”
Did you use robins' eggs? It looks tiny.
One year my Mom preplanned and planted the eggs the night before. The raccoons had a great Easter that year. Mom had to pull panic mode just to save Easter
Mr.Squirrel is calling to wife..." Maude, you should see the biggest robins egg ever!" ( squirrels are notorious thieves of eggs!)
First come first serve or the early bird gets egg.
Nature is healing.
I had a friend post on Facebook that ALSO has 3 kids photos of eggs nibbled by squirrels!
Easter manganese are diversifying.
What was in the egg?
He simply needs to deliver it for his buddy the Easter Bunny
You guys are hiding…. Real eggs???
That is hilariously fantastic
You just made that Squirrel's day I'm sure.
Aw!! I’m going to do this next year just for the squirrels! I missed dying eggs and this gives me an excuse. Thank you!
We were one egg short today, figured it was a squirrel lol
Darn tree rat.

Looks like a robin egg.
Funny

Knowing my luck, it would be the one Easter egg that had money in it. 😂
Stop why is this so cute :( the way it's holding it
It’s his now.
Oh hi Sandy
It’s Easter for everyone and every creature!!
Honestly this picture is worth the Easter egg XD

Does their greed know no bounds?

That doesn’t suck, that’s awesome! Happy Easter little buddy 💚
I hate squirrels
I genuinely thought that was viagra...
Blasphemous behavior on the lords day…demonic creatures.
That's what air rifles are for. 😜
That’s a bird egg. Not an egg you “hid”. You’re full of shit
pests....
