I live on a farm, and the raccoons are abundant. i put out shelled corn (not cooked), and peanuts. they love it. also dry cat food is good too for them.What should you feed an adult raccoon after she has babies?
I don't think anyone understood what I was asking. This raccoon was raised by MY mom. Even though she was out in the wild, she still came ';home'; to have her babies. At times she comes up to my mom and my mom wants to feed her something that would be good fo her But thanks.

I really think you should leave them alone. If you feed them, other raccoons will appear also, and they carry rabies and also intestinal parasites that can be passed to humans. Best advice would to let them stay in the wild!!!
Well i'm from the UK so I don't know much about raccoons but I caught a program not long ago %26amp; in it was a lady from the US who had started feeding them, in the end she had to call someone to remove them as there ended up at least 40 of them (they were rehabilitated %26amp; released in woodlands) . So I wouldn't recommend feeding them, animals aren't stupid, they'll go where the food is
Nothing, feeding them will make them dependant on humans. You should let the mother teach them how to find food the way raccoons know best.
