I see, maybe i need more pratice for that nail trimming. Thank you for the info crazymouse_yyh.
Ai my Ah Pit already big lady, need to tame here more time. Today feel shock that she stand on my hand and didn't move at all, maybe feel lonely or what like that, just sayang her on that time, sometime i saw her come out from the sleeping place and stand outside, didn't move at all.

That is sitting still and no movement is called Stoning. Most gliders do that. Some do it coz they feel scared, some just do it for no reason. My glider can stone for 1 hour on the table and only move when I place my hand on her.

Nail trimming just needs lots of practice and patience.

KP, ear wax single gliders got but very very little if they do not know how to groom well. Most pairs groom each other so I guess your gliders won't have it lah.

Yay! You got your joey already hahaha....

It's ok, the little guy just needs time to adjust. Let him be on your body lah. His hissing could means he wants your company.

Leave fruits in the morning. I always give some pear, apple and honey dew in the mornings... then at night 1 large tablespoon of mix but this is for adults lah. You can feed smaller amounts. But I think your joey can take 1 tablespoon of the mix. Fruits do give a nice variety. I always go to those hawker stall fruit sellers and buy the cut fruits to rotate the variety tongue.gif

Yap i'm feeding cat food for my sugar glider, but not the main meal, the main meal is fruits, i just put 5 piece cat food bisket for each day, at night will eat friuts, i feel my sugar glider not eat so much in the morning, at night can eat alot apple. Add early time i have try feed fruits for my sugar glider but they won't eat until the apple become yellow ( apple become yellow will bad to sugar glider?). But she like cat food at morning.

If anything I'm doing wrong pls tell me about it.

Catfood? Did you do research before on catfood? Did you know that catfood can cause a disorder known as lumpy jaw, which could cause painful mouth sores. Since we do not have proper sugar glider vets here, we should never take this risk of feeding them catfood.

Also, no other fruits? Apples are just full of Vitamin C and A, very little minerals and also low in calcium.....

Catfood can only be given if it is made soft by moistening it with water or grind into powder and mixed into glider food.

Do you feed your gliders a good supplement mix?
