Hello Parents, I got a pair of joeys i'm slowly getting them used to me and did first day of bonding yesterday. today and on another occasion I let one of them smell my finger and then one licked it and bit it softly, then harder and harder. I didn't jerk away or anything and I don't think either times they did bite my finger it was in fear, but was just wondering should I not let put my fingers up to their face without something in my hand?

Do your Gliders lick your fingers when you put them through the cage or in their face? Just wondering because I want to do this right and not have any future gliders that just do nothing but bite. Thanks everyone

My gliders will lick and occassionally do a little nip, the best thing you can do is don't pull back and make a sharp tssst sound.
