Try to use a pouch instead. If you have not cleaned their box. It could be ripe for disease. Gliders must be kept clean. Are they getting enough vitamins and calcium? Stress can be a problem. If you have a Vet I would get them to him, go with you instincts on this. Not sure what is wrong with her, but I will let other's with more experience answer those questions.

: We had a wooden box in their cage that over a weeks span
: is riddled with poop and urine. We bought some PVC pipe
: and removed the wooden box. Koa was always in the box but
: now does not seem to like the PVC. Will she adjust or are there other things to use that they will like better?

: Koa's eyes are starting to look runny, more-so in the A.M.
: and this morning she was shaking. My boyfriend (who is home with them during the day) says they are always more shaky during the day then at night. However, she was full of energy yesterday afternoon. Any reason for concern here and do they get eye infections?
