Sugar Gliders

Who has one or more of these sweet babies. I have 5 adults and one new baby just out of pouch a few days ago. Started this tread to share pictures and stories. Maybe cage ideas and toys. I have been a sugar glider mom for 2 years now and I love them even though they are high maintenance.

I used to have them. Loved them. Every sunday was food making day. Definately high maintenance. Any one thinking of getting them needs to research alot beforehand. I read everything I could and talked to people who bred them for about two years before I got my first two joeys.

Yeah pocket pets tries saying the are easy pets don't stink and all you feed them is the stay food. I did tons of research before I got my first one. They are a commitment of like 15 years at the least. So anyone who wants one needs to know what 15 years of daily food prep and cleaning is. I make them fresh foods each day.

Stinky and messy. Lol. I hung cheap tablecloths behind their cages to keep the food off the wall.
