feel so sad. going to 2 months still cannot tame her. and every night she start barking since past 1 week. talk to her and she stop barking for a while, when i go sleep and cover with blanket she will start barking again. i think she stop barking when i talk to her cos she scared of me.
anyone tried scent cloth or something like that? does it work? everyday i put my shirt inside the cage till now she like still doesnt recognize my smell. and touching her nose when she bite doesnt seem to work and it make her more terrorist and will bite at will.

any tips to make her less violent? i mean bite less.

i cover her with a cloth first then wait her sleep only transfer to my hand. if she wake up, she straight will jump. nvr manage to keep her in my palms till she sleep cos she will scratch and bite till i open my palm.

eric, u by mean bring her with me everyday = bring her go work/jalan-jalan everyday?

if yes, then my answer is no. cos i work 9-5. so if i bring her with me, i have to put her in bonding pouch. i scared it will make her stress cos got not enough place to move.

so is it advisable to bring her with me out to work/jalan-jalan everyday? if yes, i am more than happy to bring to go everywhere.

1 more question, when we use bonding pouch, we wear it outside our clothes so they can see outside or we wear inside so they can smell our body?

9-5 is ok.  A lot owners bring them.. I always bring my gliders to college with me, some time i stay up to 8pm.. Daytime they are sleeping, they don nid much space. And they actually prefer enclosed dark space (such as sleeping pouch/bonding pouch).. So no wworry, u can bring the glider to office, if ur office are ok with it..

For glider who still not feeling secure/trust with owner, u can put inside ur baju.. because 1) he smells u directly. 2) he wont get frighten by people or object moving around.. And he wont get too irritated with the sun lights and so on..

U know la, nowadays i seen a lot bonding pouch design, the plastic mesh window is so so big, then the pouch is so so short..it's totatly not suitable for glider.. Too much lights goes in and disturb their sleep.

my office let me bring pets to work(actually dont let but they dont care anyway.)
petshack got open today? i wanna go buy hpw, booster and some yogurt drops.

do sugar gliders get stress from loud/noisy sounds/songs?

anyway, thanks everyone for the infos and helps.

That's why we always suggest people not to let their glider roam freely without supervision, anything can happen.

Normal check up and deworming cost u bout 15-20.
ok thanks~
basic check up = full check up?
always got lots of ppl there? must make appointment first or can just walk-in?
got my joey for almost 2 months already and i never bring my joey for check up before.

EDIT:nevermind. i know the answer liao. they can pull the cage door up and slide through right?

do all sg that clever or just special case? need to prepare for worse case scenario...

this morning 9am i send my gf to UM medical centre then just got back around 1.30pm. i open my room door and saw bottles and paper plates everywhere, i faster go see my joeys then see the cage empty. i was like "die"... confirm i forgot to lock the cage door... me and my gf freak out oledi, turn everything upside down also cannot find. i was hoping at least found 1 of them... but... but... i only manage to find both them sleeping together at the pants hanging at the door.

i am so super lucky... there is so many opening for them to easily run out from the house but they choose to sleep at the pants.

lesson of the day: always put lock at the cage doors.

task of the day: find any pee or poos they might "lepas" while exploring today.

Jelly - female,
DOA: 21/01/2010

Maki - male
OOP: 10/01/2010
DOA: 25/03/2010

i succesfully intro maki to jelly and manage to make jelly tame but not bonded yet.

ps. all honey i see at supermarket/hypermarket at sunway pyramid got the word "madu asli" writen everywhere... so is it really madu asli or actually processed honey?


there is something i want to ask.
what is sugar glider in BM or Mandarin/Cantonese? a lot of people say sg = tupai terbang which from my kampung boy experience is totally wrong. squirrel/tupai is from rodents family, sg is from marsupial family. and i saw tupai terbang a.k.a flying squirrel before, they totally dont look like sg at all. if u type flying squirrel at google... some image show sg pic. not sure why, maybe oversea flying squirrel look like sg.

anyway please correct me if im wrong. im not a biologist, all this is just a view from me a newbie.

Anyone can help me with my problems?

I juz get my SG 1 month ago, but it still ot bonding to me even I hang it ard me all the daytime, but it refuse to let me hold it ( I still trying my best on this)...so any suggestion?

Another problem is tat, my baby seems like too picky on the food. It doesn't wan to take HPW, so I replace with egg but the next day it seems dun like it again the next day; same thing to the fruit n vege ( I been changing all kind of fruit n vege)...I'm so worry abt it, the only thing it eats is yogurt drop. Anyone can help me with this?

my i got my jelly almost 4 months already and she havent bonded with me yet. my maki just got last month and he is bonded with me. it take times to bond with sg, some fast some take long time. just be patient, its very rewarding when they are bonded with you.

my jelly when i first got her, she wont touch hpw for a month but i keep on giving her with other foods in seperate tray. now she love hpw so much. anyway, my jelly got bored with yogurt drop eventhough i gave her once a day only. and i think we should change fruit/vege almost everyday so they can get vits/minerals that some fruits/vege lack.

wah! miko is so cute~

my maki always bark until i let him climb on me only will stop bark. even talking to him or standing near the cage wont work anymore. is it a case of bonded or spoiled character/habit?

about the mealworm, is it ok for sg to eat the mealworm head also since i remember reading sg version(forgotten) thread saying we have to remove the head before feeding sg... my maki eat mealworm like we "slurp" spaghetti... sweat.gif

and

my sg(s) sometime make "chirping" sound in the bonding pouch? is that something i need to be worried with?

this is the case of the pet training the owner then
lol!!

no need to remove
the part saying to remove the head is because the joey dunno how to kill the worms....
in that case we remove the head so that they can suck the juice straight
joey that are thought by their parent on how to kill worms will know how to eat them without us (the owner) removing the head for them

chirping is ok, happy...nothing to be worried about

wuu. thanks for the info...

how do you all train your sg to sleep inside ur t-shirt pocket? or at least stay quiet in the pocket.

few days ago, i saw someone bought a joey from a pet shop in s****y p*****d. the joey is so dam freaking small.even the eye cant open properly yet. she bought it with a large short aquarium like those aquarium for reptiles wan i guess. inside the aquarium got wooden branch, some wood craving/bedding or watever it called.

feel so pity for the joey. the tail look like got stuck in lawn mower. is there any regulation/law that bar anyone from selling underage joey or is it just a business ethic?




if anyone buy a pet for me, i gonna scold them eventhough i told them i wish i had the pet.

saying "wah. so cute. i wish i got 1 too" or "one day i wan to have one" doesnt mean i really wan to have them.

dont believe me, just ask those couple with children... i mean ask those ppl who get pet as present, its like unwanted pregnancy...
