    There’s nothing more precious than a baby posser. But check the ends of Precious’s ears. They look a little discolored. If they are dry n “crispy” it’s an indication of “crispy ear syndrome” which is very deadly. If there is a problem go to website of National Opossum Society to find treatment. Society recommends ALL babies healthy or otherwise b given a round of Pediatric Amoxidrops along w Nystatin. He’s very cute n acts very healthy but u can’t b too safe.
