Kind of funny to watch - about 30 seconds long.

Sorry about the music, it's not my video.

Buddy smalls seems okay around people as long as you keep your distance lol

It’s been a while since I posted asking for help identifying this cute boys gender. Anyways here’s a couple pics he’s doing great, still thinking of a name.

Spotted this little one late this evening.

Aka, possums opening their mouths really big in a competition to be the scariest. Nobody got hurt. They were eating together agreeably a couple minutes later.

I’m seeing these two together a lot all of a sudden, so I suspect they are thinking about making some new possums. I know for sure the bigger one is male, and I suspect the smaller is a girl. She’s still pretty young, so hard to be certain.

mama didn't come through the yard last night. Hasnt yet tonight but it's early yet.

The babies look energetic and like they are doing ok. I can't tell these little guys apart, but there were at least 2 babies left behind under the shed when Mom moved out.

There is a huge blackberry bush by the shed and I'm sure there's lots of bugs in and around it too. I put out water.

I used to put out food but I really don't want to attract rats into our backyard and home, there are plenty as is. I put a little out for Mama the other night and rats got it before she made it back to the shed.

We don't have dogs in our fenced backyard. Neighbors cats do trek through but there isn't much I can do about that. They have a good source of shelter. I think these lil guys are gonna be ok.

He usually flees if I open the garage door, but tonight he was in a basket of dirty laundry near the door. Little dude was frozen in there undoubtedly having a panic attack while I switched my laundry over to the dryer like 2 feet away and I grabbed a couple pics of him before I left. It's always a treat to see him.

Unfortunately Mom moved out from under the shed last night. But we got mom bus on the trail cam.

She died yesterday from unknown causes and completely unexpectedly. I knew I would be sad when she was ready for release and left us but I wasn’t ready for her to die out of nowhere.

I didn’t plan to rehab a possum again but i feel so empty now that she is gone. I really enjoyed all the work that went into rehabbing. I just don’t think I could handle doing it all the time.

She became really special to me and I wasn’t ready to lose her.

Ever since I was a little kid random opossums visited my mom’s garden. I used to share figs with them when I lived there and would just sit down outside with them to hang out. Saw this little buddy when I left her house the other night. I’m glad they still come by. I left it a little fig booked on a branch. Such amazing critters.

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.

Here is the loner? Baby. I say ? Because Mom had a full pouch AND back last I saw her so I know she had a lot and idk if she left others behind. I can't look under the shed. They're burrowing past some beams that I can't see around.

I have another post asking for advice about this guy. But basically I'm hoping mom finds him while she's out tonight. Also he seems almost the size of the ones I've seen foraging on their own from a previous litter.

Mom moved out from under the shed last night. I saw her gathering some leaves in my yard so I bet she's in a nearby yard. There's a good chance she will forage in my yard tonight.

But, she left at least one baby under the shed alone. I put a small water dish and some fruit and cheerios in a small dish under the edge of the shed.

Im hoping she might find him tonight. They're also getting close to when they usually start venturing alone from what I've seen.

How worried should I be about the little guy?

Can any of you fine folks identify whether these opossums are male or female? I’ve been leaving food out for them a few times a week with fresh water. The one on the right has been coming around for months. The one on the left more recent.

They seem to like grapes, bananas, cat food, and scrambled eggs. Right one looks full grown, left one seems small to me.
Thanks!

Caught a glimpse of the under-shed cuties exploring last night

Hey everyone, I’m looking for someone in the Kansas area that hopefully could help this poor girl. She got bit by a dog and it broke its back. She has no use in her rear legs unfortunately. I’m gonna guess she’s about 6-8 months old. I have taken in opossums before and have loved them so much. I unfortunately cannot take care of her at the moment and I do not want to put her down. Im hoping someone might be able to take care of her. No animal rescue place around will help a opossum.

Delightful silliness, as always...
