Well I got my new glider last night. She arrived at 7:22pm but they wouldn't let her or anyone off the plane until 9:10pm, there was a security breach, so we had a bit of a wait but it was well worth it. She is beautiful Here she is..
And here she is with her soon to be mate, Pillowshade
They make a nice couple.
How old is she? How old is he? At what age do gliders reach sexual maturity? (Sorry for the string of questions... just curious)
Attention All Security Personnel, We Have A Security Breech In D Concourse. I Repeat We Have A Snowbird Invasion On Concourse D. No One Is To Enter Or Leave Until The Snowbird Is In Custody.
Joossa- The male is 10 months, Karma is 3 months. Males reach sexual maturity sooner than the female (geez boys are always so eager!). Females usually reach sexual maturity around 10 months but I have heard of some female gliders becoming pregnant at 4 months! I don't want that, it seems way too young for me. Usually you should wait till she is a year old. My glider who has a baby inpouch right now is 9 months and she's doing great! She hasn't pulled the baby out and killed it, which is sometimes what they do when they are young and don't know how to be a mom yet, but mine is being a great mommy
Farmer Dave- I want you (and your mom) to get one of my first glider babies! (Now I can see your home address, and you're in FL, so am I so it would be a lot easier to ship to you )
Sugar Gliders!!!! I didn't know you had sugar gliders! They are so cute! As soon as I found out about them I wanted to get one but it's so much of a hassle to get them! It requires going to an airport as mentioned above. x_x Plus they're expensive, but they're so damn cute! I also hear that they need A LOT of attention and I'm not sure I'd have enough time for em. :/
Nep_ak is right. You have to pay attention to sugar gliders everyday or else they will go back to their wild selves and then they can bite quite hard and they're just no fun to have if they're wild like that. They are a bit expensive, I agree, plus the shipping thing was a hassle, but totally worth it
Cool Farmer Dave, but it will be awhile till I get babies that I want to adopt out. This first one that's inpouch right now is staying with us So if you can hang on for a bit I'd be more than happy to help you out! Thanks for that last comment
