How do you throw a glider?(Not that I would ever do that, just curious). Mine cling to my hands and theres no way they could be thrown. Salem has the loosest grip of all of them and he hangs on too, so theres just no way to throw them. Again, I would never do that!
The way I got mine to glide was I put them on my blinds(the top) and would stand right up next to them and try to get them to jump just a few inches to my hand or pillow, then go back a little farther each time(This wont work in like 1 day, over time). I would always be holding a treat like a raisin or sunflower seed so they had some incentive to help them out. This has worked for me. I even tried it on a 7 year old retired breeder female who I was allowed to love and take care of for 2 months. Didnt take her long and she was gliding all over the place!
