Joey rejection kits - 11/05/07 11:51 PM
I need to know who sells the joey rejection kits? How much are they? How complicated is it to feed a rejected joey? I have fed rejected animals before but, except for baby cockatiels, never any animal so small! I don't have a rejected joey right now but may have in the near future! Thanks!

I also sell the rejected joey kits on my site. I will be selling the items separately too just as soon as I get them listed.

The link that ltlrdangel posted is the one I was going to send you, Wanda. Suz's site has some great info on hand raising joeys.

Hand feeding a joey is alot of work! It's time consuming since little ones need to eat often be kept warm, and made to defacte at a young age. Depending on what age the joey is at upon rejection it could be more or slightly less work.
I think any one expecting joeys should have rejection supplies on hand

I just had to pull 2 joeys due to issues with mom. It is a lot of work but well worth it. You do have to wake up every 1-2 hours when they are about a week to 2 weeks OOP and then 2-3 hours and so on and yes even at night

I bought my feeding supplies from Suz and she sent me feeding instructions and a list of all supplies needed to raise a rejected joey. I agree with the others that it is better to get all the supplies needed for a rejected joey just in case.
