Sadly, she was dead this morning. I took her to a vet who raises
gliders and she said it was totally stress related. We also
found out she wasn't biting herself, just licking. She was
doing really really good yesterday, I kept her in my pocket and
on my shoulder all day. I don't know what happened, but
I found her around 6 am this morning, and she was gone.
I have to go to work now. I'm really shook up over this, I
don't know what I'm going to do,

: : Hi, I just put my new 1 year old female glider, together with my
: : a 1 year old male I've had for a while, last night. They got along great
: : for about 5 hours. Then they mated, and the female started biting
: : her uterus (err, whatever is right below the tail) and she is bleeding.
: : She has been constantly going psycho, biting me (and she was
: : very very calm earlier), and at the male whenever he got near her.
: : So I put her back in her cage (I have 2 cages now), and she
: : was still going erratic, biting herself and me, and bleeding.
: : I called a breeder and asked for advice, she said to put them
: : back together and it should be normal. Well it doesn't sound
: : or feel normal at all, she is constantly going psycho (but she still
: : takes food from hand), and is bleeding all around under her back tail.
: : Is this "normal", or does anyone know what is going on?
: : Sincerely,
