Wombaroo Kangaroo Milk Replacer > 0.7 250g

More information

Wombaroo Kangaroo Milk Replacer > 0.7 is designed for hand rearing all species of macropod, growing kangaroo and wallaby joeys at the late-lactation stages.

Ideal for fully furred joeys that have completed 70% of pouch life and are spending time outside the pouch and beginning to graze on solid foods. Formulated to mirror natural late-stage macropod milk, it delivers elevated protein and fat levels alongside low carbohydrates to support optimal digestion, healthy skeletal development, and a smooth weaning transition.

Trusted by wildlife carers, shelters, and veterinarians across Australia, Wombaroo provides essential, scientifically backed nutrition for orphaned or rescued joeys. The 1.25kg size offers a practical, high-value solution to nourish active joeys through to full weaning.
