I'm glad you found her age out..she is still a baby..so sounds like she is comming along well...she also sounds like a shy glider (from your previous posts). My glider is very clean and never makes a mess while eating, BUT I have seen my friends glider eat..and most are rather messy..throwing food all over the place. The leadbeaters is a great diet..keep feeding it to her. Now a good question sadie asked was does she clean herself real good afterwards? The barking is so cute. They can bark for a few reasons. Since she is a lone glider she was probably lonely and wanting some attention. Do you have a nightlight in her room? That would help a lot with the barking. I honetly don't know about the crabbing while asleep...never seen that one.
Ok with the bathroom...you aren't going to change that. People have been asking for a long time and the answer is always the same. They are going to go on you. What I do is hold a paper towl then let my glider sit on my hand...he always goes on the paper towel..then he runs off to play. However while playing he always goes on me. They use pee as a way to mark people. The more bonded you get the more they pee on you. When my glider is out playing he specificly looks for me so he can go on me. Also the more bonded they are the more time they will spend on your body..so well they are gonna go when they have to. Im afraid you just have to accept that part of owning a glider. So is there anything else you are worried about? I tried to help to the best of my abilities.
