erm guys,since gliders sleep during the day time, when u put them in the bonding puch and bring them around, wont that affect their rest?
Well, gliders are animals that can adapt easily to environment changes if we train them when they are joeys. When we hang them in pouches around our necks, they get to hear our voices, our heartbeat, our smell, our movement.... all that is comforting for a glider. It would make them get used to situations and soon they would learn to sleep soundly in the loudest situations. I brought my gliders to cinema and mini concerts before, they just slept in their pouches, never move much.

how do u wana avoid them to pee inside the pouch eh..??
any idea..??
Put lotsa tissue in the bonding pouch coz tissue can absorb pee. Gliders normally pee and poo while awake, so if your glider is asleep, then no worries but once you feel the pouch is moving coz your glider woke up, quickly let your glider out of the pouch and let it pee and poo outside.

oh thanks. so how often does gliders pee and poo actually? those that let them free range in your room wont get their pee poo on bed or hard to reach places?
They pee and poo often. I got 1 that free ranges.... there is no way to control the pee and poo, only way is to clean up my room daily lah. I block all the hard to reach places like under my bed with boxes. My glider normally just roams about, never goes under the bed unless she wants to hide from me. Her favourite peeing spots are on my tables and cupboards.

my glider sumtime making noise dat sounds like hissing or like rat...lolxx duno how to describe..wat dat means??...too many dust get in her nose??
Hissing.... soft soft hissing rite? Nah, it is not dust... she is just calling out only. Joeys normally make it when hungry or wants attention.

Pee alot means take alot of water. That's ok. As long she doesn't hiss while peeing is fine.
Eating alot, which I would say is a good sign. Some joeys won't eat much. Some would starve than to eat if they were separated too early from their parents. Try giving her different types of fruits ok? Are you using any glider supplement?

hey...why zoELa didnt play her wodent wheel ek..??
kinda lazy to day..??? being observing since last nite... geting worried...
any advice wat to do or wat to check..???
If she is eating, roaming about normally, then it is nothing. Sometimes they just wanna do something else. Gliders are not like hamsters, they would only run when they feel like it. Hamsters are like addicted to wheels.
