You're from Klang?

My 2 cents la.....don't use HPW Complete, it's damn expensive & there'll be wastage as the power will hardens as it get exposed to air moist regularly. Use the normal HPW that requires you to buy honey, egg & then scramble them all together before keeping them in the freezer. If you don't have a freezer, then looks like you'll be using HPW complete then lol.

Anyway the most important part is ensure your glider still take papaya or bak choy as those are high in calcium. Don't just feed apples all the way although it's easy, convenient & less messy.

Lastly like emino said, they won't starve themselves to death. They will eat whatever you give (as long as it's edible la) when they're hungry, so don't worry. They're picky eaters, but you can change their taste. My glider used to ignore yogurt drops back when she's young. But I continue giving until now, the moment she hear me opening the yogurt drop pack only, straight away jump at me waiting for the yogurt drop de.

yes im from klang. ohh ok..yalor quite expensive leh..rm46++ 1 pack..and I think I should buy some yogurt drop for him..hehehe

Hi, im about curious whether my sg has bonded with me/my family or not. I tend to put my hand inside the cage to touch him when he is awake. He will not bite or run away.. just stand still there.. I used to feed him with my own hand, not in the food bowl we gave. My mom also talks to him everyday.

He will not bite or act aggressively. Does this mean my sg is bonded wif us already? Can we take him out without a pouch?

Ahh which part? Wanna keep in touch cause just few days ago I was searching high & low for people to look after my glider cause I'll be away for 1 week hehehe. Didn't expect to travel a lot recently.

HPW complete wasn't that expensive if I'm not mistaken. I got a spare normal HPW if you want, but you gotta buy the egg & honey la.


Sounded bonded la, it's a matter of how bonded now lo. I heard some people's glider can run back to them even though they let others play with their glider. Thats my target now! Hehe.

Currently the best I can get is my glider running to me whenever she hear the sound of the yogurt drop plastic package opening.

Oo..my mom call him then he will hv his head out from his house den sleep bk =.=

Yea, I could do that too....she'll stick her head out, check got offer any food or not, no food = back to sleep.

Does that mean we r ok to bring them out?

Need you to clarify your definition of "bring them out" ehehe.

bring them out as in put on our body and let them walk around without jumping to other place

Well, you can try that with caution la. I only dare to do that in enclosed area. Still there's a risk that your glider got frightened & suddenly jump off to run for hiding. So I probably just let her out, show people for a while & hen put her back In her pouch.

i searched online shown that sg is social animal. if stay alone will bcum paranoid, and depressed when kept alone, and will even self-mutilate.

is it true?

In most cases, yeah. But some are loners and antisocial. And some, considers you as a social partner as well if they are bonded properly, so they can be miserable if their owner suddenly change one day.

So must be sure you can be totally committed to them before deciding.

Hi guys, just wondering if there is any pet sitter for sugar gliders in Penang? I might go on a holiday next year and I'm very worried about my little critters well being if I do go on a holiday =/

Hi guys, I am looking for a joey, any recommendation. Thanks alot..

I spent a total of RM600 on my Gabrielle.
One Joey RM250, Hpw and supplements RM100, Cage RM150, Cage Set RM100..

Does not include the daily meals like fruits and veggies.

Hi! How's my grand daughter Gabrielle doing? Is she bonded to u now? Or more calm?

If your glider is not yet bonded/tamed to be attached
to you when you let it out, perhaps you want to carry it more often in a bonding pouch.

Placing a smelly shirt (after gym or workout shirts are the best) over the cage is recommended.
Wiping around your neck area or armpit (seriously) when you woke up everyday with a scent patch/fleece square/tissue of high quality, and put it in the sleeping pouch and bonding pouch, will also help you bond/tame them faster.

And lastly, confidence. It might be scary if your glider run away from you when you let it out. Make sure you are familiar with it's attitude/character. Does it like being grabbed? Or just a touch and pat? Youndon't want to startled the poor fella into running away from you, right? Any sudden movement or sound will be like a "heartattack" to them. Slow and steady and please be brave, not panic; if it does run away from you. Don't chase after it but coax it come to you.

And to mention, all free roaming should be done indoor, best is in a glider-proof area. Not an open space ya.

She crab less now. Will peep peep like that when I call her name then see no foods she'll hide back into pouch. I'll let her out and play but she still will jump back into the cage whenever she had the chance.

She'll a really picky eater, will always pick out carrots and left there. Haha
