Title: Short Tailed Opossum
Post by: ExoticFamily on March 25, 2012, 01:42:00 AM

So I finally got one of my STO's! I have been like a kid in a candy store and cannot wait till I get the female!
Here are some pics of the first introduction to our house! He even bit me! LOL!
Yesterday he ate mealworm beetles off my hand, and today he was licking fruit puree off my fingers!   :::grins::

Thank you! He is such a cutie, and just a lil piglet! I've been bribing him with mealworms and dubia roaches, and he is kinda starting to recognize me! I was able to pick him up easily the other day, but today he was VERY skiddish and was too fast to get ahold of! I know it will take a while, but I can't wait till he is able to just chill out on my shoulders!
