: : I have had my first glider for almost a month. Jules is
: : very young, and not bonded yet. Although when I have him
: : out of his cage, the first place he likes to go is on my
: : shoulder right up under my hair. When he gets scared, he
: : goes in my hair and on my head. I am no expert, but this
: : seems pretty natural for gliders. Hope this helps.
: : Happy Gliding!! Crystal

: It wasn't really like they were hiding in our hair:

: My little female Roxy was sitting on my shoulder w/a fistful
: of hair in each hand and would alternate in licking each
: handful. Occassionally she would chew on the ends.

: Our male Kane was getting up on my husbands shoulder,
: standing up, grabbing a fistful of hair, pulling it, tasting
: it, and then finally pulled a bit out and chewed on it a
: minute or two.

: I guess I just wanted to know if my husband was in for a
: haircut everytime the gliders are out :)

Libbie,
Again, I am new at all of this but from what I have read, gliders tend to look for nutrients that they are lacking in their diets. I don't know what this may be, but another thing might be what kind of shampoo do you and your husband use? does it have a strawberry or kiwi scent? or maybe guava? You never know, maybe that's why. Happy Gliding!! Crystal
