I know they spit, and this isn't my baby's usual spit sound. Maybe they make more than one spit sound, but just to be sure I'd like other input. I've had him for about 2 months and he only started this sound a few days ago.

I'd bring him to a vet, it might be an UTI leading him to try to get rid of the pain by biting

have you looked at his rear end, is he intact or neutered?, is he flossing ( masturbating )? is his genitalia stuck out and dry? Is he pooping ok or constipated? Are their any visible wounds? is he a single glider ? if not, how many cage mates and have they fought, has he had a fecal test done ?

We can't guess, based on a noise. There are far to many variables and potential reasons.

I agree with the above advice. There are so many reasons that could cause this sound/behavior and I think taking him to the vet is the best option. In the video it appears that something is bothering him and while it may just be something normal like grooming, having a vet take a look at him is the most accurate way of determining what's going on and making sure he is healthy. Wishing you well. Please keep us posted.

I have checked, and there's no SM, he's not flossing, his poop is normal (maybe a bit large), and he doesn't hiss while peeing, so I doubt it's a UTI. He is neutered. But yes it really does seem like he's bothered!

There's no glider vets around my area that I know of, but I live in Worcester county, MA if anyone here knows of any. I'll call around and see if anyone will check him out.

Are either of these places near you? Looks like they both treat exotics.

Yes, both of them. I'll check out the first one since they actually list "pocket pets". Thank you!

You're welcome. And they even offer a free first exam #128522;
