Hi.

I got gliders a few weeks ago, Mom and Baby. I didn't know Mum was pregnant again when I got her.

Since then, stress has been building up, and I can't help but take it out on the gliders. I dont want to do this, but im worried I may have damaged any chance i have of making a bond with them. Is there any hope? And before people assume, when I mean stress, I mean shouting/fighting near their cage, and things occasionally hitting the cage.

None of this was intentional, but theres that voice in my head that tells me I will never bond with them, as the Mom crabs and lunges. The baby crabs and spreads her arms. Help please

Your gliders will bond with you. I promise. It will just take a lot of time and patience. They have to learn to trust you and not to see you as a threat.
When you are stressed, try to go away from the gliders and their cage. They pick up on human emotions and it can make them skittish and afraid.
