Chaf, initially I thot that the cage is big and tall like the one I saw, but like that is consider small lar. If you can double the height of the cage is better. Even if you travel, ready made cages like that can be dismantled one. Mine is 3 feet high, can fit in my small car also... How? Cuz can be dismantled lar...
Make it taller okay.
Borrowed for breeding?? This is such a
NO-NO with gliders. Why??
Because,
1) If you've introduce your glider with a companion/friend, they need to be together always because separation later on will cause loneliness, depression and death to one.
2) Male gliders play an important role in parenthood. They cannot be separated until the joey is independant on it's own. After OOP, the male and female gliders will take turn in taking care of the joey, grooming the joey and so on. If you separate them still, can cause depression too.
You do know that sometimes gliders produce only one joey? It is not always 2 all the time. If you get only one, how are you going to split per say?
Like Hun said also, if you wanna keep the joey with your male glider, better get a male too because with a female joey, inbreeding will happen and the future joey will be a nutcase.
And to your question that you think this is a good idea, of all the things stated above, NO, I don't think this is a good idea. You should have thought about it before jumping into breeding your glider.
Just saying my peace for the good of gliders.
