QUOTE They will stay in the pouch coz their mother's milk is inside mah.... so you do not need to worry about anything. You do not need to feed them yet, let Mother Nature run its course. Once the joeys are old enough, they will venture out of the pouch to explore. When they start to explore away from mom, only then you can touch them and hold them. Intro fruits and glider mix. When they are older, can intro mealworms but right now, just let the mother glider handle it. another question.... because the mother give birth to 2 joeys, sometimes one is left out in their house and the mother went out from the house. and some times the mother left both of them in the house to go out and look for food... is it alright? and is it alright for the father SG to stay with them together?Added on April 24, 2007, 8:59 pm QUOTE(krynzpeaches @ Apr 24 2007, 01:01 PM) Congrats! thanks!  By giving birth, do you mean OOP (out of pouch)? Cuz suggies give birth to a small joey as big as a bean and they will stay in the pouch for about 6-8 weeks, then they OOP. They can only take solid food after they are fully weaned from the mother, until then they still get milk from mommies pouch. I'm not sure whether can give the mix or not right after they OOP... That have to ask Hun   KP  when is the period of OOP? when is it fully weaned from the mother? until they can open their eys? This post has been edited by MamaHui: Apr 24 2007, 08:59 PM |
