: We have been seeing the twins lil bottoms for about 2wks now,this morning I found one outside the nesting pouch...clinging to the side,and the other inside,both hissing.
: Mom and Dad were below eating,placed the one back in nest and waited for mom to come back,niether has it's eyes open,is this normal for them to detach?
: Should I remove them and feed them myself if she doesn't seem to take care of them?

Well now I feel just awfull,I peeked in to see how they were doing,and found one dead,I guess I should have taken em both right away instead of waiting to see how it would go:(
I took the other one and fed it a bit,but Polly(mom )started barking,I put the baby in by her and she grabbed it and started to clean it right away,So now do i let her have another try,or take it away to make sure its getting food.
This happened with her first one too,so i'm worried about what to do:(
