: Our little girl just up and decided she isn't nocturnal anymore
: In one day she went from a 3:00 am riser to a 6:30 pm riser.
: I'm wondering if this is a good sign, due to the fact that it
: appears she might be bonding. We have had her in the family
: for a month now and finally in the last few days she seems alot
: less scared of us. She explores mostly uninhibited thoughout
: the livingroom and hand feeding is no longer a problem. Although
: it's clear she is still not sure of my wife and I yet, things
: are definitely looking up. This sleeping habit change came at
: the same time she started trusting us more (very sudden). From
: what I've read, 3:00am is late even for a SG, so I'm assuming
: that the early rising is just a more natural time for her.

: Hard work so far, but she's so cute it hurts!

: P.S. Are there any house plants I need to watch out for? We
: were thinking of getting her a tree to play in, as she loves
: our fake ficus.

Can't answer the house plant question -
But my gliders did the same thing. I used to wait up til 1 am for them to wake up and play. Now they wake up at 7 pm, play, eat and go back to bed til 1 am. I think it means they look forward to seeing us and what adventure awaits them.
