maybe pneumonia…is there a lot of moisture in the cage? I know hamsters can die from that. Make sure they have a lot of fresh air but not a draft

Many times seizures in sugar gliders are caused by dietary problems. Electrolyte imbalances, low sodium levels, abnormal blood sugar levels, and calcium deficiencies are just a few of the possible causes.
It is important that you get your remaining gliders to the vet ASAP. The vet can diagnose exactly what is missing from the diet and get your gliders back on the right track.

I would also question diet. Improper diet can lead to calcium deficiency and seizures. What do you feed?
