Yes, gliders are not cheap because they are exotics not like hamsters.

I wish they could've cost more infact.

They can also live up to 10-15 years, so RM300 is nothing if you divide by 10 years lah.

Yes, they are very fast and must never be left roaming/exploring without supervision, unless you don't mind losing them.

Yes, they are active when they are awake and need lots of space to move around and glide. If they go missing or hiding, it will surely take you some time to find them and lotsa luck.
NEVER TRUST A BREEDER OR SELLER THAT SAYS KEEPING GLIDERS ARE EASY - PERIOD!

Thanks for the belly wonderful info. hands.gif

Wanna ask, do they need to take bath ah? laugh.gif

Do they pee/poo like pup/cat?

Can we use a soft chain to tie them around the neck? I don't know... unsure.gif

To get the cage + bottle + food, how muchie ah? rolleyes.gif

Regarding bathing, we have just discussed about in in the few post above. Do read up a bit and prove that reading or doing research is not something boring for you because there is plenty of stuff you need to read and research about suggies before getting them wink.gif

No, they don't poo or pee like cats/dogs, they basically do it wherever or whenever they want and that includes on you.

No, they cannot be chained or harness or tie anything what so ever onto them. Free movements are important to them. However if you have a well bonded/trained suggie, they will be able to return to you when you call or when they are done playing/exploring.

Cage, bottle and such varies on where you get them and such. But bear in mind they cannot be kept in small hamster cages, their cages need to be big and tall with a minimum of 3 feet (H) x 2 feet (W) x 2 feet (D), bigger is always better.

Food is the most important and crucial part as their diet needs extra care in detail. Freshly prepared foods are a must everyday. So you need to be prepared to dedicate your time in preparing their meal at least twice a day according to their feeding time.

For more regarding their diet, please refer to the diet section in the 1st page of this thread, I have compiled everything as detailed as possibly can.

Breeders or joeys and such, please do thru PM only, thank you.

Correction, a BIG cage and sticks or vines, not big sticks only. Although they will do their antics in the cage, it is also better to let them out once in a while smile.gif

Sugar gliders can make various types of noise, NO they don't just chirp softly.

Here are some reference on the noises they make and what they mean. Click on the name of the noise to hear it.
