: This topic has annoyed me for months now. No responsible breeder would sell their gliders to just anyone at a reptile show. Both breeder and owner need time to guage each other and make sure that they both know about glders and that the glider has been taken care of well previously and will be from that point. Anyone who would sell a glider like this IS irresponsible. If you got a good glider you were very lucky but I DO NOT recommend this for anyone looking for a glider. Dear God this person sends a glider off when the person probably has no idea on care, has no food and has no cage. That is not glider love and I think it is horrific.

: : I will be at the show tomorrow where Gail Dick will be selling her baby gliders and she is a great breeder I would suggest getting yours from her tomorrow.

I went to that reptile show alright. Was only there for about 20 minutes. it was a freaking zoo, man o man was it a joke. You were right though. I went to see the "gliders" and first of all, there were NO gliders even on display, there was a bunch of other creatures, and i watched as people walked up and i guess they knew who she was, cuz they were buying hedgehogs and gliders from her that she had behind the booth. I seen them put a hedgehog in what looked to be one of those take out boxes you get at restaurants!!!! oh my god.. that is sick! and this one lady bought a glider baby, and it was crabbing so loud at her and she asked my fiancee what " that sound" was.. I bout fainted !! she also looked up at him and says" theyre pretty easy to care for, right?" oh my! so needless to say i will not be buying a glider from her, or any reptile shows, or any "reputable breeders" that breed tons of animals like that. it was a truly sickening experience.
