OK i figured it out and i got some awesome news... I did try to feed him... he did take maybe 5 or 6 drops but that was the end of it he did not want no more... And yes he was very nice and warm the whole time he was with me.
Best news was I put him back in with Mom and she welcomed him back with a nice toung bath! I am taking this as a good sign.
I want to thank u all who responded in such a timely manner and excused all my miss typing lol!
I owe u all so much!

You've already gotten some great advice but I just want to add a little bit to it... You should try supplement feeding the stronger joey while leaving the weaker joey with the mother. Sometimes, not having the stronger one in the nesting area to interfere will allow the weaker joey to be able to nurse from the mother. You definitely need to try this as the mother's milk will be better for the weaker joey. If it doesn't work, then go back to supplement feeding the weaker joey instead. If you do have to supplement feed the weaker joey: At first, try feeding him every hour or so - if you go to feed him and he's nursing from the mother then skip that feeding. As he gains strength, you may find the mother more willing to feed him more often and may be able to cut back on how often you try to feed him. It is possible that the mother doesn't have enough milk for both joeys. When that happens, she will choose the stronger of the two and will concentrate her attentions on allowing the stronger one to feed (remember biology class and the "Survival of the Fittest" theory). Therefore, it would be a good idea to mix up some of the Booster Milk and add it to the regular offerings of food in the cage at night. It will help her be able to produce more milk for the joeys.

that made me sad to read the whole thread and have it end that way! you did good though what would the reason be for the mother rejecting the joey? could he have been sick and she knew something was wrong with him?

Mother may not have had enough milk to support two joeys. My suggestion is to purchase one of those digital food scales at WalMart or from a Pharmacy to monitor the remaining joey with to be sure he is gaining weight. A good Digital Scale is about $30. Babies should gain between 4 and 6 grams per week. If baby begins to loose weight.. then suggest supplemting him two to three times within a 24 hour period for about three weeks or so. Good Luck with the remainig little one.
