My baby died

 My baby died

Two weeks ago my husband and I adopted a 3 month old sugar glider that we named lightning so our other suggie, bolt, could have a brother. This morning he was climbing around the cage like normal, we left the house for the day to celebrate my sons 3rd birthday, ale home, and lightning was on the bottom of the cage spread out like he fell when gliding. I’m absolutely upset right now. He was in a separate cage then bolt but right next to him until they became bonded. I don’t know if it was stress, or from falling and breaking his neck like others talk about. The cage he was I was about 4 1/2 feet tall. #128557;

If their cage was right next to each other then bolt could have grabbed lightning and possibly killed him. It’s best to keep cages at least 12 inches apart.

I'm so sorry for your loss. It is almost impossible to know what happened, there are many possibilities, from undetected health issues to stress. Falling would be rather unlikely the height is not high enough to be dangerous unless he hit on something while falling
