One of the good things to come out of 2020 was that I found out how adorable and misunderstood opossums are. They are so cute and derpy but actually quite gentle and sweet.
I just learned how delicate their systems are.They need a special diet with a proper balance of calcium and phoshorous.Not too much fruit although they love it.
It is important that they get a balanced diet. They can be prone to metabolic bone disease. But it is okay for them to get some fruit along with various proteins and vegetables.
TastyCritters Hello! I am a year late and your little baby boo is probably grown by now, but if you ever get another small one, try weaning it off of formula when it is old enough to eat instead of nurse. I'm not an animal expert, but it could help. ^^
similar to hedgehogs, they also foam with their mouths, insectivores, I wonder why no one feeds them insects in the diet, worms, amphibians for a better metabolism. This is their habitat, they will live longer.

It actually depends on the time of year and where they live. Studies of the contents of opossums stomachs show that in certain parts of the country they have primarily a large protein diet...and in others a large percentage of the diet is fruit. They actually vary quite a bit. For the period of time they are with us we try to give them a variety of foods...balancing out the fruits, veggies, and proteins.
the subgenre of youtube exclusively for opossums eating things is the best thing to come out of the website
i'd have to agree
Yeah! There should be a separate website for opossum videos. I’d pay to watch it.
Yummy watermelon - a refreshing, delicious snack, for these little angels.
Oh the happy smacking & using their little "hands!" Adorable

Too damn cute do u need an exotic animal license to own
one?
Every state is different. I believe in most states it is illegal to take one from the wild without a permit.

They are omnivores and get a variety of items. So a balance of proteins (worms, crickets, mice, smelt, organ meat) as well as vegetables and fruit.

А потом они залезут на человека и поедут.
🤣🤣🤣😘😘😘
What kind of milk are you giving them?
It is a formula specifically for opossums.
Now let they free or they became problems with his bones
am I the only person who doesn't like watermelon?
Ha! My mom never liked it....so you aren't completely alone.
Please don't feed too many things , normally possums eat worms,beatles, crickets ,mices and too many sweet things brake her teeth
