: I posted a message last week and Bourbon was nice enough to respond, but I am still unsure how to regain the trust of my female adolescent glider "Jammie". Should I carry her in the pouch while I work? Will that too stressful? I try to hand feed her but she will not accept. I want to do what is best for her but I'm stumped. My other 2 gliders are always glad to see me and respond to me with love. I don't want you to think I am not responsible or that I don't spend time with them, I do. But some cage time is needed due to my work. Help.... I really want to work through this and keep Jammie. I want her to be happy and well adjusted.
Can I ask why you need to rebuild the trust? Did something traumatic happen to her?
Without knowing more - I would simply suggest you read the glider for signs of stress or good signs.
