Hi There,
My name is Chrissy and I too raise baby wallabies here in Tasmania, Australia.
I read your peice on Biolac and I agree whole heartedly with your statements.
I myself have used Biolac for the nearly 14 years of rearing 'babies' and have
never had any trouble with the product. And, in fact, I find it to be the best
of all the marsupial milks - it's easy and quick to use and relativly cheap compared
to other marsupial milks (at least here in Australia). I love your site, haven't
read it all but sounds great. I too have experimented with different bags and
materials and have found nothing substitutes for a good cuddle and kiss. I also
carry the 'babies' around my neck. I actually sit them under my jumper on top
of my boobs if they are small enough, or around my waist while doing housework
or whatever. People think I'm a bit strange sometimes but I don't care, it's the
babies that matter.
I have tried woombaroo and found it was veeery expensive for the amount you needed
and I had to feed water inbetween because they were getting dehydrated. So I stopped
using it and went back to Biolac and haven't looked back. I can honestly say I
haven't lost a baby through Biolac - only through injury, poisoning or fretting
(some just never adjust to you and miss thier mums no matter what you do. Fortunatly
I have only had two of those). Here in Aussie we are not allowed to have these
lovely animals as pets or keep them past a certain age, so unfortunatly, I don't
have data for you post release except for the few I have released on some rental
properties that I know have survived and lived healthy lives and reproduced. I
have never seen or know of side affects from Biolac - but I know that wallabies
and possums do go blind in the wild - whether from old age, poisons (1080 etc)
or injury. I wish I could keep them as I get so attached to them and hate the
thought of them getting shot or poisoned, but there is nothing I can do. And good
release places are hard to come by so you just have to hope they have a good life,
but my it's hard!!
I started rasing babies when I first moved out of home and was bushwalking. I
suddenly hear what I thought was a bird sqeaking. When I looked under a bush there
was a near hairless bennets wallaby crying for his mum. When I bent down to look
at him he wobbled over to me and I fell in love and had to help him! He survived
and is still one of my favourite boys (though he would be well and truely gone
now) and I couldn't stop. I have at least 4 a year (bennets and padeamelon), but
have had up to eight in a season - (seasons run from september to january - although
they can go later if the feed is good), and for a few years I didn't have a break
at one stage as they bred for 3 years running! I just loooove them and even though
I now have a daughter of my own I still can't resist them, and fortunatly my daughter
is an animal lover too, so we should be okay. I have always raised my babies with
domestic animals including birds, chooks, guinea pigs, dogs, etc. and have never
had any worries with diseases. They seem to be quite resistant to most things,
and I found dog and cat fleas don't like joeys. I wish I could set up some sort
of wildlife park or something but my property is small so I will have to be content
with just loving and releasing them for now.
Any way, great site!
Cheers,
Chrissy

I live in France, and like many people I had a dream, which was to have pet kangaroos.
I searched the Internet and found the site of Chris Thompson, wwww.peeweespamperedpetproducts.com.
If it was not for the products she sells (her pouches and Biolac milk replacer),
along with her time, patience, love and caring, I would have never been able to
raise or even keep alive one baby Bennet Wallaby. She gave me all the answers
I needed. She sent me the right products and taught me how to use them step-by-step.
For many years now she and her daughter have always been there by my side to help
me and advise me. I have known many people in Europe that have tried to raise
baby wallabies, but I can say that I am the only one I know of that has been able
to do so successfully. And that is because of Chris’ products and her support.
The babies I have raised on Biolac and in Chris’s pouches are in good health.
As a matter of fact, they appear much healthier than the babies raised by there
own mothers! I will never be able to give back to Chris what she gave me, but
this testimonial was the least I could do. So if you are thinking about raising
a baby wallaby, I would advise you to go to wwww.peeweespamperedpetproducts.com.
All my Family and me give a big thanks to Peewee's Product's!

Subject: Jirra
Here are two pictures of Jirra, one to show her whole body and one of her eating
her second bottle after coming out of pouch. She's in a pouch made for us by
PeeWee's Pampered Pet Products. These pouches were made especially for tiny
macropods such as the brush tailed bettong. Jirra is a brush tailed bettong,
also known as Woylies. Woylies are the smallest of the potoroids, which is a
sub-species of the macropods (kangaroo family). They were actually made extinct
by 1920 due mostly to the introduction of foxes into Australia. There are reintroduction
programs in Australia that seem to be pretty successful, but they are still
in limited areas in Australia.
CLAWS is the only organization that we know of that is trying to hand raise
this species. So far we've been very successful with this. We cannot thank Chris
with PeeWee's Pampered Pet Products for all of their help with the Biolac formula
and pouches, as well as moral support whenever needed!
Thanks,

Hi Chris!
Oh my gosh!! What a wonderful present you sent to us! The liners were even gift
wrapped! Jenny, my daughter, and I had a wonderful time sifting through everything.
The hanging pouch using care bears was a hugh hit, it is perfect! Thank you
for the love and attention you put in your items.
Thank you for everything.

Chris,
I am so pleased that Ray Strom and you Chris introduced me to Biolac. I have
had absolutely no problems with it in the 3 years I have been using it. It mixes
up so easily, and all my exotics love it. As a bonus after reading all the studies
on Biolac compared to some of the other milk replacers, it turns out to be the
best on the market for my brushtail possum too! My joey absolutely loves it
too and no problems with it whatso ever! Thank you so so much for sending me
all that material to read about my brustail possums. And especially for the
totes you made for my wallabies and brushtail. I couldn't have asked for anything
better. You have thought of everything us marcupial breeders need for a pouch.
Lots of room for the joey to grow, yet not too much room so that they would
feel uncomfortable in such a big area. You even have room for those hand warmers
to stick in a pocket to help keep your joeys warm! And the little toys you make
are just what them seem to love. You have thought of everything Chris, and have
found one of the best milk to use! I thank you so very very much for all your
help, and wisdom you pass on to everyone that asks.

Hi Chris,
Thank you so much for your beautiful pouches, they are so well made, my Joeys
will be very warm and comfortable in them. Our winter has just started. I shall
be singing your praises at our next meeting and proudly show them off.
Again, many thanks.
