: : : I also through a nice stinky sock in the cage with them.

: : ..about the sock socks are not the best thing for a glider.

: : i have heard that people that put a sock in their SG cage, and the gliders feet can get caught in the threding. some people have had to get their SG legs amputated because it was stuck.

: : i too just got a glider about 4 days ago, i cut up an undershirt that i wore for two days (to get my sent on it) and put in his box. he didnt seem to mind it, he actually hid under it when he sleeps.

: : then i made a pouch for him out of fleece, and removed the box, this way he would sleep in the pouch and i could take him out in the day while he slept in his pouch (i wear an under shirt, pin his pouch on that, and then i put on a button-up shirt and button the bottom three buttons then i tuck them all in) it seemed to help him get used to me real quick.

: : if u want good advice talk to Bourbon she helps me a lot

: : he allready crawls all over me, eats from my hands, and sometimes pet him while hes in his pouch.

: : he is really cute

: : well hope this helps

: Thanks, I'm trying the pouch, Not sure if I made it large enough for the two of them. Is your Glider

: a hand-tamed baby?

not quite yet almost only had him 5 days and i made my pouch 6' x 6'
he likes it good luck
