Converse munching.
She loves wattles!
Chose wattle flowrrs over grevilias.
While in care these Short ear brushtail possums can have some supplement food.
She quite likes corn, sweet potatoe, or pumpkin.
We have started hiding food around her enclosure for her to find.
A lucky find is indigenous fruit in season is blue quandongs or lilly pilly. She is learning to use her wonderful hands and claws.
We are of course planning to teach her about the food in the forest here.
She will eat bark and clay too!
We give her "dirt trays" and indigenous grasses even lomandras.
She is still going to be a "joey" and with us for another few months.
She has had vusits from other possums wild and ones we have released previously.
She is gorgeous!
