With the guidance and advice of a PhD in animal nutrition, Opossum Complete has been formulated to provide a healthy chicken and insect-based protein source for your opossum. The high ratio of calcium in the insects (BSFL) helps to prevent calcium deficiencies. Dried natural apple, blueberries, cranberries, and papaya are added as fruit sources.

Feeding Recommendation: Offer Opossum Complete daily as a staple diet to weaned opossum eating solid food (3 to 5 months or older).
Opossums are one of the world's most variably sized mammals, therefore feeding recommendations vary. It's important to know that opossums have a large appetite and a slow metabolism. We recommend offering Opossum Complete daily as a staple diet. Supplement the diet with small amounts of high-calcium vegetables (leafy greens, squash, sweet potato) and occasional protein sources such as insects, fish (with bones), eggs (with shell), or chicken. Always provide clean, fresh drinking water.
