Male glider will develop musky odour when they reach maturity age, and they will do marking on the cage/owner/other gliders as well.

However, neutered male glider woudn't have such issue. Most of the cases happened where the smell drop a lot after neutering.

For female glider, they smelss good for me. As long as you clean their cage, food bowl and wipe their body regularly, i don think there is any problem in smell.

Wow thanks for the fast reply. How often do we need to clean their cage?
And to clean the cage, are we suppose to wipe or wash?
Sorry, i'm really new here. wink.gif

Thanks for the germisep link!
I heard ppl mention cleaning the cage using water + vinegar to reomve the smell. Have you try that before?

I heard the minimum cage size is 24 x 24 x 36. Is that the minimum?
I mean, if we get any cage smaller than the above size, it's not comfortable for the sugar glider is it?
