my female i got had been alone for a year and 1/2 and i got her a cage mate a male the same age but they just don't seem to get along their fine during the day sleep together and everything then at night they go all funny. so now my moms making me give him away so i wont have to cause him stress cause hes starting to bite, i guess shes just not used to other sugar gliders. Ive never had to give a pet away

do any of you have a lone glider?
or sugar gliders that just wont get along?

Can you be more clear on what you mean by "something goes wrong"? What exactly are they doing?

Also, you've only had them for a very short period of time... Successful introductions can take months.

Looking back at your previous posts, you've only just gotten your male about 2 or 3 days ago. That is nothing in glider time.

she grabs his head and like picks it up and jump on each other i don't know if shes biting or rubbing her head on his neck but they like grab each other and make this weird like eek tisk kind of noise.

You've only had the boy for a few days. I would not give up on intros yet.... Intros take time.

That sounds perfectly normal. They are marking each other...especially when she's rubbing her head on him. This is not aggression.
