Sugar Glider Love and Care

 Sugar Glider Love and Care


I have 3 sugargliders now: a baby boy: Peppermint, my baby girl: Buttercup [now a mommy], and my sister's baby boy: Emu [now a daddy]

I love them all dearly and they brighten anyone who see them's day. They require though a lot of love, care, and attention. You have to remember with glider's to put yourself in their position. To give them plenty of cage space and to often play with them. They require about 1/4 cup of fruits per glider [full grown] and 1 tablespoon of grains per glider [also full grown]

Babies:
Babies need to be taken away from their parents at minimum age of 8 weeks. ***Hint": This may seem unfair but you need to take into account that in the wild sugargliders will be released away from their parents at that age. With domesticated animals it's different because they cannot naturally release them for they live in a cage.

Babies do not need to be taken away from their parents. If you're talking about age of selling, 8 weeks is the BARE minimum they should be and they are still nursing at this age. They also require fresh fruits AND veggies AND protein every night. Unfortunately, wild gliders and captive gliders really can't be compared as their requirements and needs are very different.

"If you live to be 100, I hope I live to be 100 minus one day. So I never have to live without you." ~Winnie the Pooh &^%and*&^ "And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled 'till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more." -- Dr. Seuss
