The male sugar glider has a bifurcated genitalia. It consists of two shafts and is forked at the end like a snake tongue. The genitalia is long and pink, and looks similar to a long worm. If you see this, which you eventually will, Please do not cut it off; your sugar is healthy and normal.

I have had mail gliders since '08, & I have yet to see their 'little' genitalia, & I am w/them often. I guess I have very well mannered males,evidently!!  |

My 1st 2 gliders, rosco & twinkie were males and the 1st time I saw it, I too thought he was hurt. Before I panicked and took him to the vet, I got a closer look and was very releaved!! I never saw rosco's; but twink became very fond of his and wanted the world to know how great it was! He got to where he would "floss his teeth"(yes I know that sounds gross; but that is what he looked like he was doing with it!) everyday! I started to worry that maybe something was wrong, because I never once saw rosco do this. I took him to the vet, and was shocked when the vet just started laughing as he told me that twinkie was just masturbating and that it was common for the boys to do this! Just masturbating?! I got to where I was almost afraid to pick him up before peeping in to make sure he was not doing this! I now have 3 other male's and have never seen them do it. It took me a while to accept and come to terms that my sweet baby twinkie, was a selfloving sex addict!! Anyone else have this problem? |

Wow. Thanks for the information! As an about-to-be-new-glider-mommy to two precious boys I'm glad I found this information as it might have freaked me out a little to see that if I didn't know they had bifurcated genitalia. After all, it isn't something common to most of us lol now that there will be no surprises I will know not to cut it off (or otherwise try to remove it) although I wouldn't have tried to doit myself anyway, for fear of hurting them. But good to know, anyway. |

There will be no flossing in this g-mas bra.

Question: Do males really spray and what exactly does that mean or what do they do. |
GucciLove Posted - Aug 21 2012 : 09:33:25 AM
I have a male and i just wanted to post to the person who saw their baby "cleaning it".. just a head up lol... its actually him masturbating.. if u research it, when they kinda do a flossing of their teeth with it its actually that lol..
when i first got Gucci, a few weeks into it i saw it in his pouch and i thought it was a string, when i realized it was attatched i was so taken back lol.. a week later when i saw it again i saw there was 2 and i went straight to google bc i wasnt sure if i was seeing things correct or if i was going crazy. sure enough it was what i thought it was and i was laughing with my family for a good week about it haha |
yecats Posted - Aug 08 2012 : 02:07:01 AM
I was a little confused the first time I saw my baby's buisiness too, but I figured it out pretty quick. Without any thoughts of scissors! People have done that?!?!?! I am mortified :O |
Lauraann86 Posted - Jul 24 2012 : 08:32:39 PM
My male seems to have his out all the time now. He just goes ae bout his business with it hanging out, Im not entirely sure why he would have it otu ALL the time, but it doesn't seem to bother him any. |
tiffsuggie Posted - Jun 29 2012 : 01:10:26 AM
i saw the pictures of it and that pretty gross lol i wouldnt have cut it off though! if you get them neuterd would you still see it? is it out all the time? do the have it out when you hold them? if you only have 2 males and no female would you see it?

LisaW Posted - Apr 05 2012 : 11:07:36 PM
Sleeping in his little sock on my lap I stuck my phone in the sock to take a picture of my precious boy and soon to find he was letting it all hang out lol. I could understand how people think it is a worm. but cut it off? oh my I hope that has never happened
|
karensink Posted - Apr 04 2012 : 02:28:36 AM
oh trust me, it comes out at other times too. a lot when they go thru puberty, has been my observation. |
Stitch5826 Posted - Mar 29 2012 : 11:00:56 PM
I defintely was wondering what it was..but put two and two together when it only came out when he peed or pooped...please don't tell me someone cut it off??? Yikes. |

Welcome smmt!
Gotta tell You.. your lil' guy still has both genitaliaes..Only his testicles were involved in his neutering.
I was mentally prepared (I thought) to see it..Curious even..But when I walked by, as Widget was cleaning himself..I did a triple take!
Reminded me of skinny earthworms...ewwww!! |

Thanks! That's actually some great advice because I'm expecting my first baby sugar glider next week and it will be a male! I breed fancy rats and I'm sure I would have figured it out but anything to help not learn the hard way always helps! Ill be glued to this forumand learning many things! |

OMG! I now have 3 males. So much to LOOK forward to! Seriously though, good post but I am a nurse and I have seen ALOT of human stuff but I still would have been thinking intestine or something if I hadn't read up on the glider anatomy. Just my opinion, but knowing your new pets anatomy is an important part of pet owner ship. Prior to owning, just as diet, housing, cost, etc. But, I did Lab rescue for years and years and it just blew my mind how many people buy animals on a whim and then when they get too big for an apartment or knock over things/children, well "I just didn't know he/she got that big". Venting sorry! |

WOW - I just stopped reading and laughing long enough to look at the photo - WOW! I would have been running to the vet too! |

I have read this many times (I've read every glider thing I've come across on the web) - "don't cut it off", "don't pull on it" etc. Why on earth would anyone want to cut or pull on it? |
