Bourbon,

First rule, always feed pre-killed not live.

Second rule, never feed pinkies while the glider is in your pocket or pouch.

Gliders eating pinkies or small mice will typically hang from their rear legs and hold the meal in their hands while they eat. It isn't always the most attractive sight, but they really do enjoy it.

P.S. Of course I don't like bugs so I wouldn't feed them while my glider is on me either.

: I did it, I went down and got some Pinky's, but i was convinced Baybe wouldn't touch them as she was not interested in them prior to..she held it in her little hands and licked it, and held it, and licked it some more.. then she looked like she had tucked it under her (she was in my pocket), So I shifted her around, so I could see what she was doing.. she was trying to shove it in her pouch!! She licked it some more.. I was in such total awe, the way it seemed that she was going to adopt this pinky.. Oh did I say SEEMED? yes I do believe I did, because the next thing I knew she was munching away.. It was disgusting, and I poersonally don't know if I could ever go through that again..I proceeded to yell at the woman at the petshop for not having them already frozen, and told her how cruel and disgusting I thought it was. I thought she was going to lose it right there. Now you MUST tell me, that she will eat them after they are frozen, it was the worst, disgusting thing I had ever seen Baybe do. As natural as it is, I don't think even I have the stomache to see that again.. AUGGGGHHHHH !!!
