Guys, if we bring our suggies out at nite. not that late la...just like around 8 to 10...is it advisable to bring them in the pouch or wut? sumtimes they get active during that time, sumtimes they just sleep.
or issit better to just leave them in a familiar territory (cage/home) during these hours?

Added on February 20, 2008, 4:09 pmi always smell this fresh flowery smell. i know its not my perfume. do u think it is from the gliders? do they have their individual smell n this smell, is represent what? is it kinda marking as well? n how old are they when they can produce this smell or is it as young as a joey?

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.

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.

I do bring my gliders out at night.
But my glider is very bonded to me, they won't go exploring anywhere else except on me.
So i know that it would be safe to bring her around.
I do bring the pouch along just in case she is scared then she'll have a safe pouch to go back to.
*
Heheh...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...  sweat.gif

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

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.

Yeah, hooray to those dates! By that time i think i can make it. If earlier i'll be bz with moving. Hopefully in april im happily settled so i'll be able join u guys. yeah!!


QUOTE(silverwineus @ Feb 22 2008, 05:16 PM)
This is the two frames for the sides of the cage, finally, i chose to use angle plate, reduces the work of drilling the holes for screws..
I think i'm only 60% satisfied with it, craftmanship is just average.. so-so..only.
It's 2.5' wide and 7.5' in height..
Still have a lot to do, only 10% done.
QUOTE(rafiqos @ Feb 22 2008, 09:21 PM)
10% and it's looking quite impressive already! That's going to be one behemoth cage. Angle plates is a good way to move forward, for sure.

Can't wait to see the complete project! Are you welding the parts together yourself?

Nice work! Keep us updated yaa?! thumbup.gif

I wouldn't allow them to do it if i was around.
My mom told me bout it when i got back.
I would have yelled at them.

QUOTE(Reanne @ Feb 24 2008, 03:26 AM)
A classmate of mine loves to poke and bounce the pouch up and down his palm when I'm not looking. I still don't understand why he just won't listen when I say don't do that. He only manages to bounce once or twice every time because I would notice and move away immediately.

Sometimes, it's best to just move away and get the glider out of their reach first before telling them than to tell them off while they're doing it.

X baik la these ppl. Ishk.... Lucky none of my friends do that to my joeys. If not, i'll be so so so pissed off at them n i mite ignore them for all i care.
If family/relatives i mite have said "woits nak mati ker?".

I dun think you have to peel the skin. Just give it raw (wash 1st eh). But cut it in a few smaller pieces.

May i know what's the secret to his this fast recuperation, i'm eager to know what did you do, spel'it?
I just give them mixed that i bought from reanne everyday! And different fruits everyday. Meaning to say, only one fruits per day (2-3 when im generous, and want them to have a variety, and if i see them dun eat much the day before), and diff fruits everyday. N he started eating mealworm like 5 - 6 per day. notworthy.gif Koochee doesnt. doh.gif But im not giving up hope on her. That's y i said Cheekoo is now getting fatter and fatter and almost as big as Koochee.

N I didnt even give the med taken from the vet yet. Its still in my fridge. Maybe one of these days. Becoz i have not yet read that soybean oil is safe nor bad for gliders. But since u and hun and also the vet said its ok and only the protein is bad, so maybe one of these days.

And i spend so so much time with them. Like 24/7, except when i sleep la. Yesterday, i even let them a free roaming in my roam while i sleep. Koochee even climb on my knee and call me to play with her at 5 oclock. I just pat her, give her time to roam onto my body a while, and put her down again. Sumwhere around 6.10 i woke up, n put them back in the cage, they eat a lil, then go back to their pouch. SLUMBER time!! ehhehehe...

So i dun know. Bcoz i think its the same as before. Just maybe he was depressed during the time him n Koochee got separated. But i also think that the mixed help to boost his health. I mean seriously it does. thumbup.gif

rafiqos, spel'it,

I'm not completely satisfied with the side frame even though practically it works, but the design seems not nice to me and the welding can be improved. One major problem is that i didn't use the water level measurement tool!! So that's why one part seems a bit out.
I going to start all over again and hopefully it will be the excellent dream cage. Much need to do then.

Later i'll post up the new design for you guys and see if it's a better design yeah?

Owh...its ok...practice makes perfect. Even an experience ones can still makes sum mistakes here n there. I guess. Hehehe....
Will be waiting to see ur new design.

Yeap, tentatively it's either on the 19th or 20th April.

I am now waiting for the approval form the manager.

Once approved I will immediately get in touch with the press.

Settle the location and press, we can start work on the stuff needed for that day!

Woahhh, sounds like a big event! Wanna get news/TV coverage as well? brows.gif
