: Maybe she's calling you...Eos barks at night and I soon as I sit up in bed so she can see me she stops. Also, try turning a light on in the next room or shining a flashlight in her general direction. Bourbon says they are telling stories - because only one glider at a time barks. Maybe they are just talking to each other. :)

: : : My female glider Cloe has been barking a lot lately and I'm not sure why. At first I thought it was because she kept losing track of my other glider Zoe, but she still barks even when Zoe is around her. Then I thought maybe she wanted me, but one again, she keeps barking. Why is she doing this? I've had her for a couple of months and she's never done this until recently. Her and Zoe get along great. Could she be calling for a male glider? Any ideas?
: : My gliders have been doing this a lot lately too. Could it be a weather thing? Any thoughts would be great. I would like to know what I can do.

: : I've had a male for aprox. 9 months, after about 2 months he started barking at night for 1/2 hr to 3 hours every other day or so. Aprox 3 weeks ago I purchased a female and the male stopped barking. It's possible that this is a sort of mating call or a call to other gliders to group, as they are known to be a family unit.
