Hi guys, would like to ask the experts here. I bought a sugar glider on New Years Eve w/ my boyfriend. She crabbed alot on the first day we brought her back home but now she's already okay and doesn't crab haha smile.gif

She's kind of used to my hand already but does get a little jumpy when she feels it's "suddenly" there. She's awake right now and active but since yesterday, I put my hand in a fist (the back towards here) near her (I'm trying to get her to jump on it so I can play with her), she just reaches forward and licks and bites my knuckles. Is she hungry? O.o Cause she mostly bites, thinking there's food? lol

maybe she associate ur hands with treats.. she might thout u offering her treats r ur hands got sweet smelling fragrant..
coz most of the time new ppl bond with treats so when ever u put ur hands out it might signal giving treats to them.. but take ur time try picking her up from her belly insted.. if she charges at ur hand and bite it, it might be becuase it's defensive

for jumpy most of the gliders are very alert and every sudden movement they will get startled.. unless u take them out often n mingle with other ppl then they might adapt to noises n new places easily

How do I pick them up by the belly? scoop from below is it?
