One of my foster boys likes to walk around with his tail curled up. I'm not too experienced, but out of the 10 gliders in my house he is the only one that does it. I'm just curious if anyone else has a glider that does this..

Yes, I have a couple that like to keep their tails curled.

Some gliders actually use their tails to carry small objects like bracelets or the rings off of milk jugs.

If you give your gliders the milk rings be sure to cut them so they will not get stuck in them. They will put the ring over their head and wiggle through it until they get it to their tail then they may carry it around. It is fun to watch.

It's normal. It seems like you may have a tail carrier . As long as it isn't too stiff where it seems like he can't uncurl it, you're fine. My Glider does this from time to time. He runs with it sticking up, holds straws with it, and climbs with it curled.

I've never seen him carry anything with it. I have bracelets in their ball pitrs, I'll have to try some during tent time. :-)
