Subject: Can I leave young gliders with parents when they are grown?
Posted by Leigh on May 27, 1998 at 20:23:33:
I have a pair of gliders that are now raising their third baby, and I would like to know how they will get along if left together. I have heard lots of stories about the mom becoming aggressive towards female offspring when they become mature, but how do males get along if left in the same cage as mom and dad? I read some info on the University of Tasmania page that said that the sons actually help the father to care for siblings. Does anyone have any experience with this? And will the sons interbreed with mom? Any help would really be appreciated!!!
