My daughter and I are both very interested in owning two gliders. Anyone know of reputable breeders in the Connecticut area? I know not to go through pocket pets and pet stores but I want to make sure we go the right route! Thanks in advance!

After doing a google search for gliders in Connecticut, I didn't find much in the way of breeders but did find some rescues. There are reputable breeders in places like Virginia, Florida, and Texas who will ship their gliders to you. I'm not a big fan of shipping, but they've been doing it for years without any problem. My first glider came from Pocket Pets and I understand your concern. While I do have "issues" with them, I ended up with the most precious little baby imaginable. Best thing you can do is do your research and ask questions. Good luck!

Michelle Cutler is a breeder in Boston 2 hours or so from Connecticut https://www.facebook.com/michelle.cutler.5496

I haven't had coffee yet but she's the first one that comes to mind up north near you. I will give it some more thought and ask around a little to see about other Reputable breeders.

https://www.facebook.com/louiseferrari Louise is in New Hampshire I don't her personally but she was highly recommended and very active in her local glider community, if nothing else she may know a good breeder closer to you

not sure how far into CT you are but the lady I got my guys from is on LI about 50 min from the Tappan Zee bridge.
Very nice lady and im guessing handles her critters every day judging from how mine acted since the moment I got to her door.
If you are going to neuter she will even have it done prior to picking them up so us newbies don't have to deal with a wound.
if interested ill send you her info
