You already posted this. You were told what you needed to do. You need to find a new cage immediately, or return the old glider to the owner. Immediately. They should never have been introduced at this point in time, as you did not do a quarantine.

Please head our advice-both gliders' lives are at stake. Even beyond the quarantine-the new glider needs to settle into his new home, get nuetered if not done already, and take intros slowly and of course be able to separate them into different cages if things don't go well. But yes, you could have also infected your girl with a load of parasites without vet checks and fecals that sometimes don't show up for thirty or sixty days.

Okay that is good news! As long as you have another cage just incase-because when things go wrong with gliders-they go very wrong! But they can also be best of buds, just keep an eye on them. And get them to a vet this week for fecals and a wellness check!
