Yes this is a fun page, as far as the bath, I am glad Bourbon did say it was all a joke, I was wondering if I really should be bathing them. I have only had mine for a month. I have to bathe my hedgehogs, so why not sg's. Ok on the sleep issue, yes we know they are nocturnal, so are my hedgehogs, but by changing there eating pattern, to earlier in the day, and only leaving it in for a short time, hour or two, making sure they are awake to eat, then again, feeding them in the morning, I am able to keep them awake longer in the day and earlier in the evening. I don't know why this wouldn't work with gliders. I haven't tried it yet, but as soon as we get to know each other better I am going to give it a try. Mine come out to play after midnight, and are back in bed by 6:30 am I a can't do those hours. When I do wake them and feed them during the day, they will stay out for an hour or so, I think what helps at my house is that we are in a basement, and it is darker than an above ground room. That is probably what helps with the hedghogs too.
If anyone thinks I really shouldn't do this please let me know. Thanks
