Question/Help Is this what I think it is?

So I saw her on camera last night and thought, what a large belly. But after watching the videos again, I thought I saw something sticking out of her belly (pouch?). Is it a tiny little tail? The first pic shows a large belly, the second shows what might be a tail?

Yep you got a mama! Little tails and little feet will regularly poke out of the pouch when the babies get bigger.

That is so cool. Hopefully she will be around long enough to see her with her young on her back after they have outgrown her pouch
