it really just depends on the glider's personality. i cant vote because i dont think either is easier. with any glider it just takes time and patience. some older gliders are tough to bond with if they have been in bad homes or something, but some joeys can be hard to bond with too. its all personality.

Neither! It depends on both personality and how the glider has been raised and taken care of to this point. Some joeys are never handled and therefore absolute TERRORS when it comes to bonding, where as some adults are so starved for attention at times that they're big sweeties. But the opposite can be true, too.

I agree with misscarl and kozi The only joey/young glider ive had was a nightmare because she was rarely if ever handld and the older four (some nicer than others) are sweet because they were already familiar with people.
