: HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN RAISING GLIDERS???? WE HAVE BEEN RAISING THEM FOR 5 YEARS THIS WAY AND HAVE YET TO HAVE A PROBLEM. GLIDERS ARE IN THE POUCH FOR 3 MONTHS THEY HAVE GAINED A LOT OF THE MOTHERS ANTIBODIES AND ARE WELL ON THEIR WAY TO GREAT HEALTH.

Sorry to interupt but, according to all of the scientific data I have, gliders are born at 16 days, spend approximately 60 days in the pouch (longer if there is just one baby) and are weaned at approximately 120 days. This data of course is based on wild gliders.
