i've read some conflicting ages,some as young as 8 weeks so just wondering what is the optimum age for joeys to be separated from their parents, is 10 weeks too young, would they benefit from staying til 12-13 weeks?
thanks

They should be fully weaned at 8 weeks, but most people like to wait until 10 weeks before separating them.  You can tell when they are fully weaned as their tails will be big and bushy like an adult's.
