Subject: Gliders @ School Posted by Dodger on October 06, 1999 at 18:50:43 from 152.163.213.73 My school, a vocational agricultural highschool is getting sugar gliders. I have one, and have taught our vet science teacher all about them and have given lessons to all qualified classes on handling techniques. We have an extremely good program with all members active in the FFA, along with a new ag building that includes a special room for exotic animals, alls thats in there now is our ferret and our bunnies. They plan to get 2 babies, different sex, and neuter the male. They have a new 3ft by 3ft by 3ft cage available and we plan to have the babies socialized by a few different students at certain times of the day to get the used to being handled by different kids. They also set up a system that makes so kids can have their "animal" privelges taken away, which I don't think we'll have to use. I am bringing my girl, Dodger in on Friday to demonstrate care, etc once more. Please tell me your thoughts on this and what we can do to improve our program. Thank you!! Dodger
