 Two males and a female!!!!

As in my past entry i described the death of Sammie. Timmy's new friend Louie is very sweet. Well we went to a flea market and there were sugar gliders. I saw this one that i completely fell in love with and ended up bringing her home. We were planning on keeping her in a separate cage from Timmy and Louie and getting her another friend. Well she ended up bonding with Timmy an Louie. Now they all live in a cage together! We were planning the neuters when we found out the female, Bonnie, is pregnant! I have seaarched low and high for what to do! They are all bonded and we dont know who the father is! Timmy and Louie have never fought and all continue to live happily. Bonnie is now about 7 weeks along. What will happen once they are oop? We heard the other could canibalize. Has anyone had two males with a female? Any tips? Right now we are planning to let nature take it corse and get both the males neutered before they can mate with Bonnie again.

Thanks!

 How to deal with the death of a sugar glider.

I got 2 male sugar gliders for my birthday, Timmy and Sammie. Well one day Sammie managed to get out of the cage and my dog got him. She is a very sweet Italian greyhound, but to her he looked like a stuffed toy. Also when we first got them we were miss informed that our dogs and cats would not hurt them because they don't smell like rodents! They even had a pit bull licking one of theirs! We were always cautious, but slightly more layed back around the other animals. He passed away while we were rushing to the vet. We took his body back home. I showed Timmy his body so he would know that Sammie died. I dont know if this is what we are supposed to do when dealing with the death of one. When one of my dogs died the other became very depressed looking for her for months.I thought if he knew he was gone he wouldnt be looking for him. I went that same day to get another sugar glider for Timmy. He found a friend and he is doing good. Is this what to do in thee future? How do you handle a death of a sugar glider? Any tips?


Thank You!

*Now we have a cage with locks and keep them in a separate room completely off limits to other animals*
