If you want, you can take her to the vet. But if she's any
thing like my Wickit . She wont
let anyone mess with her pouch, including me. If she'll let
the vet mess with her you can. As for a heat rock, I wouldn't.
Just make sure she's not in any drafts. If you think she might
be cold put a wash cloth in the pouch/nest box. Just keep her
stress free, and up the proteins and calcium. You should be
fine. One thing everyone stressed to me, was to make sure
she had plenty of water/juice. And of course make sure she
has food in her cage 24/7. Hope this helps. If anyone can
throw in some other tips. This will be my first joey/joey's
wickit has ever had too. Good luck!! :)
