Baby Possum Alert

Sprout's latest baby has just started emerging from the pouch. This is probably her third baby but could be her second. It has been a year since her first baby and brushtails in this area generally have two babies per year, but occasionally they only have one. She was out of the area during the entire period when her second baby would have been around, so there's no definite evidence either way.


Sprout currently only uses Box 1. Sometimes she sleeps in some other unknown place nearby. I think Box 5 is also part of her territory so she may use this one at some stage.
