Vienna, What are you feeding him? It seems to be something in his diet, Think back to when it started and see what changes have been made, maybe a new added food or something. As Tiffainy said some dairy products may cause it. With some it is too many mealworms, nuts, cereal, are they getting any fruit juices at all? Be careful with giving them the prune juice, as with any other juices. Don't get me wrong. Fruit jucies are great to give them, just don't give them large amounts. We have found that too much juices will lower their appetite for other foods and also cause loose stools. Did it start when you offered the glideraid? In order to find out if it will cure itself, you must first find out if it is an added change. Also sometimes stress may cause it as well. Gliders do not handle stress well and many times it shows in the weirdest ways Good luck
