 South Florida Breeder

Hello community!
I am a newly Licensed breeder. As many experienced sugar owners know there is thousands of opinions! Take it for what its worth and come to a educated decision.

On to starting out:
Explore- Do research, try things(within reason)
Build- Make your own cage! I have seen "Glider Mansions" for $1,499.99
DON'T DO IT! Make one your self! HOWEVER MANY WOODS AND SUBSTANCES ARE TOXIC AND/OR DEADLY TO GLIDERS.
Douglas Fir is a great wood for building cages.
Experiment- with foods learn about meal worms!(they bite)
I got a general consensus of 50% protien, 25% fruits, 25% veggies
Baby food works well (chicken & turkey) there are many recipies out there in short GOOGLE!!!!!!!!!!

Well any advice or references to further my education is greatly apprieciated!

Mealworms bite? Do you mean Super worms? If anyone sees this post, PLEASE don't use a leash!

Hello and welcome! I would avoid using a leash on you sugar glider, they are dangerous. Regular meal worms are unlikely to bite and I'm not sure if you would even feel it if they bit you. http://s208.photobucket.com/albums/bb293/COCatman/parts%20of%20Videos/?action=view¤t=100_4144.flv
