Bourbon, Caroline's book observes that gliders mate and have babies when their protein source increases. Nature tries to be smart like this. of course as pets our gliders always have access to a lot of protein and will breed year long. My pairs first baby was conceived in February and weaned in June atypical for high bug times. but then my female begs and steals as many mealworms as possible.

: Hi Sherry welcome back,
: I say welcome back cause I know you haven't been here this past month.. We have been discussing this a lot lately.. After reading this go back and read the post months posts.. they will give you more ideas.. As far as the wriggling,, you are looking in the range of anywhere in the next 2 to 3 weeks. As far as foods, Well mine is craving extra proteins, so we are giving her , the usual foods plus lots more bugs..Crickets, mealworms, grasshoppers, and moths.. Has anyone noticed that the gliders are mainly preggered when bug season is at it's highest?..
