I just moved to an apartment with my sugar gliders and its on a pretty noisy street. It's busy in the day and also at night. It's a very sunny room but they have their dark pouch anyways. For noise though from the street and people during the day, do you think that I should move their cage to my closet? There's enough space. If I did, would they rather be in there do you think? And would my clothes start smelling like them just from being in the same room? I'm thinking we would all get much better sleep but I don't know what the downfalls of moving them in there would be for them and myself.

So after about a month of my two sugar gliders getting used to each other's scent ( nuetered male and young female) I've inteoduced them for the third time. The first two times they fought. This time they're curious and gentle with each other! But they keep trying to get on each other's backs and they look like they're maybe trying to clean each other's hair as well? What does this mean.

I have a few problems with my new glider Stellar/ I've had my sugar glider Ollie for about 3 months and we're great together. He's very nice and social, he's been nuetered 2 months ago and about 3 weeks ago I got another sugar glider Stellar, a female who I got from a breeder when she was ready to go. I've been switching their pouches between cages every night and carrying them both during the day when I can. I take her out almost every night to try to get her used to me but she wants nothing to do with me. She crabs and lunges at me and Ollie. She doesn't like it when I take her out at night and she tries her best to hide from me and when I get her on me she jumps off almost immediately. I tried to introduce Ollie and Stellar and they both don't like each other even after switching pouches a lot and having close cages. They balled up and tried to fight. I Separated them but I put in a secure metal mesh down the middle of the larger cage to split it in two and they're both separated but in the same cage, hoping they'll see nothing bad happens with the other one being near. They don't crab at night but they do aggressively chase and run. How do I get Stellar to stop disliking us and why is Ollie being aggressive towards her when he's never aggressive usually?!
