 What does this sound mean? (ChirpHisssssss)

hey guys! Winston makes This noise when he is in his pouch and awake. If i reach my hand in the pouch, tickle him a bunch, and then pull my hand out, he pops his head out and makes this noise every time. While my hand is in the pouch he gently nibbles on my hand.

Just want to make sure that this is a "do that some more, i like it" sound and not a "stop touching me inside my pouch" sound. The biting is also confusing if they are playfull nibbles or warning nibbles. He never bites me, (any type) any other time.


This is exactly the sound without the clicking
He is a boy of about 6months old

the nibbles are just to taste you and get to know you better (most of the time)

Oh, Holly is one of three now. She is definitely Alpha Female, but still happy and healthy. They use these same sounds with each other.

It is a social sound. He is 'talking' to you and anyone/thing else he knows in your house. I had my baby girl for 3 years alone. She was happy and healthy. Never lonely. She would talk like that; also a kind of ticktickticktick like noise; bark everyonce in awhile (usually could tell she was warning me of something- she would bark when the neighbors dog went outside late at night). She loved nibbling me and would even take it farther while grooming me! You can blow at them and hiss to stop them from this btw! I think he was telling you he liked it and please continue :)

My boy does this at night when he's lonely and wants to play. He's a single glider right now so I wake up and spend awhile with him and he seems content after. It's definitely not a bad sound.

kinda common sound, it seems to me it is a distant call aimed at other gliders (either members of their colony they can't directly see/reach, either strangers in the neighborhood.
