Babies Under the Shed

This vid is from a day ago to give a better view of the babies under the shed. At least one of these joeys got left behind when Mom moved out last night and I'm wondering how concerned to be for them. Gave em some fruit and water for now.

If a baby got left behind definitely leave them food and water and if possible trap them cuz they look a little small to survive on their own. Just encourage them to stay by if you're not able to trap them with food and water. The best food to feed them at this stage would be soft. Cat food, fruits and vegetables finally cut up.

Sardines for calcium and bananas for potassium!
