 new suggie

Well i Just got my new Sugar glider yesterday. I feel excited and alittle nervous. I have spent a year doing research on them and now that I got her I feel unprepared. is that normal? there are some things that I have noticed that she does alot: sneezing while holdeing her nose and also she loves to bite and it is HARD! If any one has ideas to stop the biting i would love the help! and any other tips to bonding/feeding ect would be helpful.

The sneezing while holding her nose is grooming. Don't worry about it. She's spitting into her hands to wash. Diet should consist of 50% protein, 25% fruit, 25% vegetables; total 3-4 tablespoons daily. Add insects; in the wild they eat lots of bugs. I buy mealworms and crickets at the pet store. They're easy to maintain, and inexpensive. Gliders don't need grains.
