Hi, I'm new to sugar gliders (but not new to small pets; I have had guinea pigs in the past and now have a rescue hedgehog). I am planning to bring home two joeys in about a month, and am doing a lot of research to ensure that I have a good set-up and care plan for them.

I will have one female, about 11 weeks oop, and one male, about 9 weeks oop.

I have read many care sheets about diet, bonding, etc. I have wondered, though: are there any modifications or special tips for care of weaned joeys? Ie, any special additions to a diet (I was planning to go with this one (http://sugarglider.info/staple-diets/tpg ), different bonding methods, etc? I'm assuming they sleep more than adults, like most young mammals?

Like I said, I'm doing my research ahead of time and want to be prepared, so any advice is appreciated!
