The only problem with the books on the market is that they're getting outdated. Especially the diet and trio breeding. Its changed quite a bit, you wouldnt believe the things we're finding out now that are not in the books. If you check out sugarglider.net and go to the breeding and babies forum you can see how many have tried trio breeding and had joey death after death, most of the time it just doesnt work. Pairs are best for breeding. One case I remember that did work was with 2 sisters(I think) that had been together and then a male was added. Something like that, but thats one of the few that did go smoothly. With a M/F pair already its not a good thing to introduce another glider at any age. I dont knoq if this guy is looking to breed or just get another glider to add to a colony but either way its still a BAD idea.
