I had my female glider for about a year and a half. She was very bonded to me and
quite happy, but I decided to get her a friend her own size. I got another female baby,
and kept them in separate cages for about 3 nights with supervised encounters. After
those three nights of them barking and struggling to be together, they have been in the same cage
together and absolutely adore eachother. My older glider was so intrigued with the baby, and
the baby wanted a mother. My older glider seems happy with her new friend whom we've had
about a year now, she isn't as attatched to me anymore, but she is still very loving and sweet-she
just doesn't need my constant snuggles. I am really happy we got the baby glider-my first glider
was not lonley before, but I think she is very content now and it is so sweet to see two happy faces poking out
of their nest box instead of one.
