I have owned Sugar Gliders for many years now, and though I only breed them as a hobby I have done extensive research on their peculiarities. As a hobby breeder I spend a large amount of time with each of the gliders I own.. We have some of the most affectionate Gliders I have personally ever seen due in part to the time and dedication our family puts into their care. I study them nightly & have come to learn so much about them. I also aid in the private rescue of unwanted gliders in my state & have successfully rehabilitated many of them, enabling them to be placed into new homes.
I am a former Surgical Veterinarian Technician & have extensive exotic, wild & domestic animal experience in my background.

WOW well congratulations on your great progress thus far! Most people don't even get to that point.. In my opinion if your suggies are tolerating each other for even short periods of time it is time
Too much protein and calcium would be any main concern where diet is concerned.. I feed my gliders primarily a ledbeaters mixture ONLY.. it contains all the proper vitamins / calcium / phosphorous ratios
WOW.. my apologies for you unfortunate incident.. Gliders tho we know so much about them, are truly a mysterious critter.. there are many reasons she may have injured him.. but without witnessing the event
Well the bonding situation is far more serious.. but I have already answered such questions in length.. and am prohibited from answering them over and over so please do look thru my older archives for
Well what is done is basically done.. I wouldn't waste the $$ on any type of DNA testing as it really doesn't change things.. The best you can do is to separate them mother from son or better yet have
