: I got a fourth glider the other day and he is allready very sweet but major problem I havent had enough time with him to be able to trim his nails and im starting to look like the poster child for glider abusing me :) is there anything I can do to keep his nails from tearing me up until we get bonded enough to trim them?

You can wear protective clothing such as long sleeves and slacks. To keep their nails trim provide lots of wood objects for your glider to climb on, a polly pastel perch works well for them as does putting some fine grain sand paper into a running wheel for a couple of hours each night.
