So it has happened again! After we caught Gwen eating pongo just a few days ago we just assumed that she had gotten sick and died and that Gwen was just cleaning up the remains. Well tonight when my sister went to feed them she found Gwen eating Daisy's foot off!!!! We managed to get daisy away but her foot is completely gone. I'm completely torn up and we're rushing daisy to the vet but I'm just completely at a loss as to what could be going on. Daisy is 7 weeks oop and things have been going completely fine she's been completely healthy!!! Has anyone ever had this happen?? I'm so worried these are my babies!!!

i just got nauseous reading this, i am so sorry :( no helpful words, just that i am sorry

Oh my gosh!!!! That's insane! I wish I could help you in this situation. I don't know what's going on here! Be careful when you separate him and he doesn't start to self mutilate too. My thoughts are with you and I hope someone has some useful advice for you!

I am very sorry to hear of your loss once again. I wish you and Daisy the best and I hope she pulls through after that happening to her.

How is Daisy after the vet visit? Is she Gwen's joey? I have heard that this does happen sometimes - sounds like, if Daisy is a joey, that you will need to keep her away from mom and hand raise her. She can have a full, happy life with 3 feet.

Here is a link to a couple articles on hand-raising a joey (Suz' Sugar Gliders is the author). I hope this help! I hope that little Daisy is doing well!

Gosh, I'm sorry to hear that. Please update when you can! I hope someone with experience in this area jumps in with some insight.

Poor baby- I know you are horrified- hope the sweetspot can give you some insight! Sorry for the your loss- we all thought the twins were precious! Hope little daisy is ok- missing a "petal" makes her no less a little flower!

Missing a petal makes her no less a little flower....that was beautiful mingsmom...

Malcathryn....it will be hard work to hand raise her but it can be done...wishing you the best of luck ....

This is my little Daisy today. Her leg has been cleaned and bandaged up and she had been eating really well despite what happened yesterday. I still have no idea why Gwen would do this to her little Joey. I mean Daisy is almost 8 weeks oop.

She is adorable, and will do wonderfully with you taking care of her like you have
