my little frankie has been making a sound I have never heard from her before, its like three quick hisses, almost song like, but i'm worried cuz i've never heard it before. she seems thinner than the others which worries me too, but she's eating as far as i can tell, she licked yogurt off my finger... i'm just worried if this noise could be a sign of a respiratory infection...should I go to a vet?

If it concerns you, then a vet visit would either relieve your concerns or treat an illness if there is something found.

Do you hear the hissing when your glider is peeing or pooping or just at random times?

The hissing may also just be a form of communication. I have had gliders use a hissing sound followed by a short bark to call out to other gliders in the house that were housed in another room.

its at random times. my other gliders do a hiss with a bark, but this is just a hiss. it has a rhythm like the crabbing, but its just the hiss, like her squeaker is broken.
