Message: In Reply to: HEY JO-BOURBON-DEB or anyone else who knows - I Gotta question posted by Christi on February 23, 1999 at 09:23:49: : You mentioned a week or so ago that "down-ears" could be a sign of depression. Koa and Jako only do this when they sleep. Does sleeping count? It is normal for gliders to have their ears down when sleeping, it helps block out outside noises. You should only be concerned if they do this when awake. : Also, we wanted to get a new nesting box, since the one they have is getting to small. I was thinking about one of those clear plastic boxes that they sell at the pet stores (the ones they put the little mice in for feeding to the snakes, they call them lunch boxes, how sad). Or do they need something not so see through? I guess what I am asking is what is the best and easiest to clean. We had a wooden box at first and they got very foul in a hurry. A nestbox needs to be dark. There are a few places that sell plastic nest boxes: Pawprint, Brisky's, and Exclusively Sugar Gliders : What is good toy for them to put in their cage? They don't seem to play with anything we have put in their, they don't even climb on the wood we have hanging from the cage. Try parrot, small animal, ferret or cat toys. : Just wanted some ideas of what works for others : Thanx tons! Clara
