Your friend uses woodshavings? Without a separator? Gliders do not need any bedding.... only a substrate like newspaper or breeder's celect as it is clean and no allergies. But there must always be a divider mesh that separates the substrate from the glider....

Last time use bedding. Now no more. She get wrong info from others.
I m using cloth, smooth one.

Well, at least now she knows, and at least now can do treatment to solve the problem. Hope they become better.

Even with cloth, make sure always clean.... I use corncob and breeder's celect.... so far so good.

Ohhh thanks for the info given.

Is the vet good?
I mean, really knows bout these animals and proper way to treat them?
Or they just treat them like any other small animal?

i use oats for their bedding. quite ok too. n they wud eat that as well. Dr jenny said, its gud because they contain amino acid (if im not mistaken).

its not really meant for bedding la..i just put it under their playhouse. they got a pouch to sleep in actually.

Added on February 21, 2008, 8:45 amHeheh...my poised joey, Koochee, wud stick to me like glue. She wud only go exploring when she see the coast is clear. Else, she wud be on me, only. But she is very friendly with ppl.
But, Cheekoo is a different matter. He likes exploring and very active, and only come back to me when he's tired and sleepy already. He wud want to climb and sleep on me. Hehehe... And he's anti social, when with unfamilair ppl, he wud crab like mad. Heheheh....

Oh. Corncob as bedding... Interesting.
I'm using just plain old newspapers. Easier to throw out. And theres A wire seperator between the cage and the poo section, so Teddy never bermandi pee. Hehe.

Although I sometimes caught him cuba pancing any of his honeydews that jatuh ke bawah...

Teddy sure loves his honeydew. Especially if I mix them with apples. I love them both myself . Sometimes after cutting them into small dices, I curi makan a few before putting them into his food holder.

huhu..me myself wud be a "taste-tester" before giving them any fruits. want to make sure its sweet enuff for them. Else they dun want to eat.

Yeap, I know how the eucalyptus tree looks like by heart now

Every time I see trees, I will search for any possible signs of eucalyptus

Haha, your dad like my husband lor, no patient when driving, he would definitely not stop at the park what with all those cars and people

Aiyah, we go ramai-ramai glider owners to Sg. Buloh lah... Each of us can bring home 1 tree Hehe.



I used to use Litter Star. Always have separator between the substrate and the gliders.

Now I just use newspaper cuz of the size of my cage. If use Litter Star or any other substrate sure die to fill the whole tray

Yeah, I always find my suggies fishing for the dropped fruits under the cage too Macam tak ada food lain wanna fish for the dropped ones


KP

They treat them like other small animal nothing special.

Met with Hun today near my office to get Slurp supply. Hehe.
Had a really nice talk with Her about gliders! Hun, we should next time just go inside the McD next time! If i dont have any scheduled meeting like today of course!

eucalyptus? u sure?

even if we can find eucalyptus trees in malaysia, it wouldnt grow well.. most probably it would be like very thin, elongated... but nevertheless, it would be worth the try planting them...in australia, i remember the last time i was trekking through the woods, sap just cant stop oozing out of the eucalyptus trees... be it day or night...

could it be taman tasik perdana?

Added on February 21, 2008, 10:27 pmwell, personally i wouldnt really like to bring the terrible two out at night lah.. omg man.. those two really damn fast at night.. i dont want to risk them getting lost... especially if i am standing next to a tall tree!!! lols.... you get the picture.

meanwhile, those two fellas are wreaking havoc on my arms... the grip so hardly!!!!... my hands all got bintik2 merah and small slits...lols... i guess they still dont really think that im the 'tree' yet... lol.. but Bugs (my male) likes to nibble on my neck and chew my hair... quite annoying at times but i just remove him and hold him for a while.. my female is like super duper active after 10.. jumps up and down.. but morning onwards, she will slumber like a log! no matter how loud i talk, how vigorous i walk, shell be fast asleep lols... but Bugs always peeps out... makes me think that he wants to pee all the time but no... neways, tried smuggling em to school today... thank god they did not make a beep or *marah* from teachers... lol.

waiting for the food to defrost b4 i feed them currently...

Yes, oats can help but then normally as a wet bath. Maybe same thing if use as bedding..... but many shampoos for sensitive skin or dry scalp has oat or wheat germ added.

Same, these days I also look at trees very often and I can identify eucalyptus too.

LOL, yah, I think it would be a good idea to get a tree....

Litter Star absorbs smell very well...

Yah, next time lah. I was hoping to see Teddy today

Eucalyptus can grow here, but not in abundance and also not as tall and great as in Australia. There are a few trees in Lake Gardens, and also UPM..... UPM has quite a number of those trees around in certain part of their campus.

Me is lucky Teddy is not the crabby type. He never crab once at me!

Well, he did crab once, but thats because I open the fridge and he tries to jumps into the fridge and hit the door instead. But he crabs at the fridge, not me. Haha~
