: I've been gone for only a couple of days and look what happened. It looks to me as if there has been quite a few arguments lately. Well that's fine and all because we are humans but this page is devoted to learning and teaching each other about our own sugar glider experience. So along with the arguments can we please write some useful things down hear.
: Now to my story. I just got my new female glider last week. She's not tame but I think that will change some with time since she is only five months, no she's not a baby and that's how I wanted her. I have decided to name the new addition, Partlett, after a character in the Canterbury Tales. The name goes along with Chaucer, my male who is very tame and playful.
: Since I have had Partlett, with whom Chaucer had instantly bonded, I have noticed that Chaucer has been making a chattering noise. I just bought a sugar glider video that says that gliders make this noise when they are happy. I was wondering if anyone has noticed this to be true.
: Another thing that I wanted to ask is if anyone knows of any quicker ways to tame an older glider or any ways to not get bitten as easily.
: I also wanted to ask once again if there was any other glider owners in Maryland?
: Thanks for reading and remember that we are all in the same hobby together and we learn from each other, lets just put any grudges behind us.
: super sappy sugar glidin gliderific. Matt, Chaucer, and Partlett

I know that my Griz makes that noise since we introduced Lily our female. I think it's sort of a wooing sound. He never makes that sound at me! He makes that sound as a "hey, where are you" or "hey, I'm coming into the pouch" or even "hey, you are the sexiest babe I've ever seen"! Does it sound like he's doing a teeth clicking thing? If so it's the same sound that Griz makes. Hope this helps! Glider love and nibbles, Diana
