Subject: This Week's Questions
Posted by Wesley on May 12, 2000 at 03:32:01 from 38.27.163.120

I finally found out how old my Maggie is. According to the
breeder, she is about 11 weeks OOP.
Every week I have new questions or concerns with my glider as
I, like most of us, am feeling my way with my new pet, unsure
of what is best for her, what is normal. Hopefully you guys
can help.
I finally got Maggie on a Leadbeater's diet. Even though I
blended it VERY well, she will spit out the tiny peices of
chicken after chewing them. She spits while she eats, which
causes the mix to run down her chin. Anyone else seeing this?
Maggie barked for the first time a few days ago. I had never
seen her willingly explore her cage, but I woke to her barking
and sitting on a shelf out of her box. Was she just lonely?
I took her out and she ran around playfully.
Maggie will sometimes crab loudly in her sleep, even though I've
done nothing to disturb her. I'll check her in my pocket and
she'll still be asleep. Is she having ni.aspares?
I've tried the cotton swab, but it doesn't always work. Does
anyone have suggestions on how to keep my glider from going to
the bathroom all over me?

Thanks for your replies.
