I just took in a new male glider who's bald spot hasn't filled in since he's only recently been neutered, and his bald spot is super red and irritated. My sister said it didn't start until about a day and half after his bonded cage mate was accidentally swapped with one of the other gliders one of her friends took in (it's a long story, but basically mama and baby went to her friend instead of the two babies). I'm meeting her friend to swap out the gliders in the next day or two, but it's obvious he's missing her, and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on what I can do for him to A)keep it from getting worse or help it heal and B)help him feel more comfortable until she's home. It seems like something minor right now, but I know with gliders it can go from nothing to something quickly. I'll try to get a picture later if I can, but he's not super comfortable yet and I'm trying to give him some space to adjust to being in a new place (he is still in his old cage with his other cage mate for the next few days before introducing him to my gliders) |
