ok so my suggies have mated and made 2 lovely baby joey's. The last time this happened they ate them that very night they came oop. This time they waited 4 days to eat one, and i immediately took the other baby joey, (once i was able to get it) under my care. I went and bought everything need for a "incubator", heat lamp, and even bought possum milk replacer. I blended up the baby BML diet with the milk replacer, rep-cal, and vionate. My baby will lick the formula off the tips of my finger but not much. He/She likes to sleep a lot. I also seem to be having trouble helping the little thing void. Ive tried running a wet cloth over the little things bottom and nothing (which would make sense for the little amount of food).
My questions are...
1. Am i doing anything wrong with the feeding?
2. How can i help the little thing void?
3. What temp should i keep the incubator set around? its currently about 75 degrees, and the little thing has tons of fleece blankets to crawl under.
4. How much should they be sleeping?
I know i have a tough battle for the next 7-8 weeks, but i'm well up for it.
I would just really like any help anyone can give me. Thanks!!!!
