Yes, chipmunks do nurse their young. After giving birth to a litter, typically consisting of two to eight babies, the mother chipmunk feeds them with her milk until they are weaned, which usually occurs around six to eight weeks of age. During this time, the mother stays close to her young, providing care and protection as they grow.
