Hi, my name is Bobbi Keener. I am a first year veterinary student at Kansas State University. I am looking for someone with knowledge in raising sugar gliders. I am having difficulties raising the babies from my pair of sugar gliders. I would like to know what you feed the momma, her attitude, among other questions. I am having a problem in that my female has the babies (OOP) and within 7 days I find one dead (eaten mostly). This last time I lost both of the babies in the same manner. I noticed that one the babies seemed to get weaker, therefore I am wondering about the diet I am feeding. Other times I didn't have a clue, they seemed healthy.

Anyway I am looking for YOU! You can either give your recommendations or just give me an email address and I can get a hold of you. THANKS for your time, and I hope to hear from you!

Bobbi

In most cases this is diet related..but not always. What diet are you feeding?
