: : : Does anyone out there own both of these? I'm wondering if they get along OK. Could I keep them in the same cage? Any breeders out there that could give me some info on the squirrels? I have a sugar glider, would like some company for him. Any help is appreciated. Melissa
: : A guy I know tried it and it didn't work at all, they had to be kept in separate cages. He said the squirrel was a pain in the butt. They're two very different pets. The squirrel is a rodent, the glider isn't. The glider will bond with you and sleep all day in your pocket, the squirrel won't. The sugar glider will very much appreciate a sugar glider for company.
: : This isn't my personal experience, but I believe him totally. We are not breeders yet. We are going start in the near future. We have 1 flying squirrel and 4 sugar gliders. We got the male squirrel first then a female glider. They got alone ok. Then we a male glider. The 2 males fought for a while but, now they get alone fine. I'm talking they both made a lot of noise, not really fighting. We just got 2 more female gliders. They are making noise now. Just remember to keep an eye on them. Try holding them at the same time. That's what we did
