As an update, I am not even sure if Joey is still around, she has had several generations of offsprings who ALL look like her, they come from time to time but are slightly more timid then their mother was!
this joey is so beautiful,......seems mighty tame, indeed, so you're only 2 foot from the joey?!!! Wow,....the only wild critter to get with 2 foot of me hummingbirds and wild doves,....the rest skitter away pronto!!
Thanks for your comments, yes, for a wild animal she is very used to us. We aren't able to touch her as she still hangs with the other wallabies and I think she takes her que from them. She still comes almost every day for a feed and although I think she has lost her first Joey, she has another one in the pouch now so hopefully we will get a family of wallabies that are not too afraid of us!
Just happens that Joey is here as I write to you. She has had a hard life so far. Smaller than the rest of her kind due to losing her mother at an early age, she had her own joey earlier this year. Alas, her joey must have succumed to the same snake that her mother did as only a few days out of the pouch and her joey disappeared. I think she may be pregnant again though. We are hoping!
Anyway, thanks for watching. Feel free to drop me a line anytime.
Now yer right there: Back in the days when Bloaks was Bloaks and Sheilas was Sheilas and the nearest Guys was in California - don't count Hawaii as it flies the Jack. Well back in them days we'd crack them criters like whips and chuck straight on the barbie for half an hour - saved chasin after a chook. That Joey could do with some a Flo Bjelke-Petersen's Pumpkin Pie Recepie to build him up - dare say in stimulatin territory like yours you could do with some yerself!
I think this person is about preserving wildlife not eating it. That's the trouble with cowboys, they just have to kill anything that moves. Look at all the Kangaroo's in the WA's Pilbara. All shot out and most left to rot where they fall as the gun happy locals feel the need to kill everything and anything that moves.Fact is they even shoot the endangered species as well as they don't have a clue.I think the Rooz are safer with the Pythons! Keep up the good work and help look after our wildlife
She's actually not a pet because there are too many other wallabies around but I'm sure if they weren't there to influence her, she probably would be!

G'day Swompwalker.
Bet you've seen your fair share of red belly blacks -(Swampys.
We use to have 2m taipans up here on the hill but they have been pusshed out by the 5-6m pythons! One of them responsible for taking Joys mum!
Cheers from paradise.

Either that or a human. I think I'd trust a snake over a human anyday. Buy a Jackrussell if you don't want snakes around your house.
