: My sugarglider is an 8-9 week old baby. I have carried her around with me daily for a couple of hours each day (inbetween two tee-shirts). Every time I look at her she makes that crying sound and when I pick her up she bites. I have seen no improvement since I purchased her two weeks ago. The man I bought her from said it takes a week to ten days to adapt to the owner. What am I doing wrong?. She is just precious and I want to her to be happy and not fearful of me. She is eating good and looks normal, just doesn't want anything to do with anyone. Thanks for any help.

I am having the same problems, at least she doesn't bite hard . I would guess that like all animals it is going to take longer that 2 weeks. So take your time. Try giving it treats from hand one the glidder loves. If you know the favorite treat keep it away from the glider for a week then try and hand feed it to the baby. Do give it to the glider till it takes it from you.
