: Hi I have lots of questions. First I got my female glider a week ago and she still wont come to me when I call her

How many other pets know their name after a week?

--------------
:and she will only come near me when I have food and I hold it out in my hand. When I do this I try to touch her but she runs away, whats wrong?

Maybe she doesnt know you well enough, only been a week

-----------
:next, She sleeps in a nesting box and whenever I try to open it during the day so I can bnd with her she charrs at me alot, does she just not like me?

Maybe since they are nocturnal, she likes to SLEEP during the day and doesn't appreciate being woken up

-----------------

:When do you think I will be able to play with her?

When you quit annoying her and let her get adjusted

---------------------

lastly, when she gets up at night and I feed her, she goes back to bed about an hour later and wakes up a couple of hours later in the night

WELL, maybe she is still TIRED considering you have been waking her up in the day. Have you ever gotten a midnight snack or a glass of water?

-------
, is this normal behavior? please help me I want so badly for her to sit on my hand or pocket and be my friend!!??

Sounds pretty normal to me.
