Do you still need taurine and vitamin c supplements or does this food contain it already?

Opossum Complete already contains taurine, calcium, and a plethora of vitamins. You would supplement the diet with calcium if you are treating MBD (Metabolic Bone Disease), or feeding insects that are high in phosphorus (imbalanced Ca:P ratio). You can also supplement the diet with taurine and VitaGlow if you notice a lack of energy or if they seem unwell. The full feeding recommendation, ingredients, and guaranteed analysis are pasted below: Supplements: ✔ Exotic Nutrition's Liquid Calcium - add to your animal's water to prevent calcium deficiencies. ✔ Exotic Nutrition's Taurine - an important building block of protein which aids the central nervous system. ✔ Exotic Nutrition's VitaGlow - increases the absorption of vitamins and nutrients in the daily diet, allowing your animal to be energetic and giving their immune system a boost. ✔ Exotic Nutrition's Garden Fresh Re-Hydrate - a nutritious prepackaged blend of fruits & veggie with a balanced CA:P ratio. Feeding Recommendation: Offer Opossum Complete daily as a staple diet. Adjust the amount fed to ensure optimum body weight. Supplement the diet with high-calcium vegetables like leafy greens, squash, sweet potato (or Garden Fresh Re-Hydrate). And supplement the diet with the occasional protein source such as insects, fish, eggs (with shell), or chicken. Always provide clean, fresh drinking water. If treating MBD (Metabolic Bone Disease), supplement the diet with a calcium supplement.

Will this food also attract skunks? I want to feed the possums but not bring skunks into my property

This food is formulated for opossums but there are ingredients skunks like. I have never had skunks find our food for our opossums. Just squirrels and opossums.
