Apr 24, 2010 New Owner Posted by: LadyRedI just thought I would write about my new 6 month old male suggie.. He is very sweet and has a very unique personality. I am new to owning sugar gliders and so far we are making alittle progress..not much but anything will help..I purchased him from a family that has ad him since he was out of the pouch but didn't really spend time or have time because of travaling and "too busy"..So needless to say I have a young suggie who is scared and lonely. Im learning as much as I can on and about them I just would like any advice from experienced owners would give me..whats the best diet? Whats the best supplement? Do the mealworms HAVE to be gut-loaded? things like that...I would appreciate any advice I can get...thank you for taking the time to listen..
Apr 24, 2010 Really? I mean.. come on.. be logical. Posted by: MorikoWithout basically retyping and reranting about this all over again, please refer to Nov. 15ths journal entry titled Ticked off/ranting time. Thanks. :D Apr 23, 2010 Buddy needed! Posted by: suggiemom02I will rescue a glider or buy one for a decent price. i have another post called cage mate needed. Apr 21, 2010 Sugar glider needed. Posted by: suggieluver02I have a female glider. she needs a cage play mate. i live in Kentucky and i think its time she gets a cage buddy. i think she would be happier since shed have someone to play with when I'm not home! i will take a female or male. but i would like for the male to already be neutered. we don't need any babies running around. so if u are in Georgetown, or Lexington Kentucky an are selling a sugar glider at a decent price then message me and let me know.and it would be nice if he/she could come with a temporary cage. destinee Apr 20, 2010 New Babys Posted by: LUCIAandSOFIAI just got two Baby girl Gliders. I have done lots of research but still a little nerves. I found out that they love watermelon and green apples not the red ones. Lucia is stating to bond with me but Sofia is still a little scared. I hope to bond with her but Lucia was eating out of my hand last night and this morning she cryed out for me when I was passing their cage. Apr 16, 2010 My Heart Melted Posted by: ikurtinI have had my gliders since February 14th 2010. At first Ziggy wanted absolutely NOTHING to do with me and would crab, lunge, and attack any time I went near him. These past couple of weeks, Ziggy has been hopping all over me during tent time and coming to greet me in the cage when I stick my hand in or when I'm on the outside of the cage just saying hi. Last night, I was doing tent time with my two little boys and Max still is on the opposite side of the tent as me and he hides under the blanket that I put down (clearly still working on him bonding to me). Ziggy thought it would be a good idea to fall asleep in my legs (I was sitting cross-legged). I wanted to try and put my hand under him to see if he would sleep in my hand and low and behold he did! He was letting me rub his belly and every time he woke up he would just look up at me and fall back to sleep. I seriously could not believe how sweet this was and my heart absolutely melted because all my hard work has paid off. He clearly loves me just as much as I love him <3 As much work as gliders are, I really am getting used to everything and I am so happy that I am finally seeing HUGE progress. Ziggy is my little baby and even though he came from PPP, I am so happy I gave him a loving, caring home where I know he's safe. Hopefully Max will be next, if not, I'll understand. Just like every person has their own personalities, I can tell every glider has their own personalities. Just figured I'd post this little update :) Apr 15, 2010 Interesting! Posted by: MorikoDoes anyone have any thoughts on the amount of natural diasters and occurrences lately? We have had many earthquakes in a short amount of time, giant meteors, volcanic activity, ect. Do you think I'm over-reacting or is something going on? WILL 2012 REALLY BE THE END!?! Sorry, sarcasm... I just really hope I don't bite down into that sarcasm when 2012 gets here.. Thoughts?

So, I wanted some recommendations: what is the minimum amount of "distance" two animals need to have in order to be bred? is there some sort of standard that most breders consider safe? Mostly the difficulty is that many animals have a partial heritage: not a full 5 generations. I aim for my animals to be that far apart, but if that proves impossible I want to minimally respect the standard. so, what is it? Apr 8, 2010 antique cage Posted by: loveglidersSorry, I'm getting all of my questions out at once (: Is there any danger in using an antique bird cage for gliders? My primary concern is the paint. I found something that would be much prettier in my living room, is roomy and safe, but I have no way of knowing what it has been painted with. Apr 8, 2010 trios Posted by: loveglidersI have always thought of gliders as "pairs". But, it seems many breeders do trios. Are there any drawbacks? And, are those the two options, or do some people do quads or more? |
