: I opened the nest box and there was mom and dad and little (?) on her tummy!!! when can i hold it? It was so little, don't know if there are two but i atleast saw one, i think it went back in pouch after i looked.

I usually wait until the joey's eyes are open. If you are very bonded with the parents you may be able to start holding it sooner.
