Possum Milk Feeding Guide
Possum Milk is mixed at 16g of powder made up to 100ml of warm water. Feed at 13% of body weight per day, divided into 6 feeds. Possums remain on Possum Milk for their entire milk-dependent period — there is no stage progression. Weigh your joey regularly and adjust volumes as it grows.

Customer Reviews
Good as always. Quick and easy ordering and delivery. Thanks
Perfect formula; will never use anything else!
Best possum formula. No dehydration, gut problems etc. as experienced with alternative well known brand. Possums seem to find it more palatable. Mixes well with less fat separation. Been using it for 3 years now both as a carer & veterinary clinic. Swear by it!
I am a wildlife shelter in East Gippsland, I use Biolac for most of my ringtails. It’s the only milk they adapt to readily. It’s a lovely milk to work with, it doesn’t separate in the fridge. The fact that it can be bought in bulk bags is another reason why I use it. The price is very competitive. The wildlife do well on it with no complications so far.
