My Sg that I have had for two weeks. Stills sqeaks at me. You know the sound like the motorized car. Nanananana. Any way he does this alot. Like if I wake him up or accidently scare him with my fingers. i want him to cuddle up on me. He stays in his pouch and now he sticks out his nose everynow and then. I got him in a shirt pocket today too. Is it normal? Am I doing this right?

Thats called crabbing and they do that when angry or frightened....your glider just needs more time to get used to you. I heard crabbing for about the first month and I haven't heard it at all since then.
