Sugar glider not eating? Are they gender specific?

I bought a baby sugar glider yesterday. I’ve been holding her constantly except when I went to bed and she’s doing pretty well I think- she’s already jumping back to me when I set her down. I’ve been offering her food- carrots and corn so far, but she won’t touch them. I left some in her cage last night when she was active but shes still didn’t touch any. Is there any food they love I can try to start her off on?

Also, she doesn’t mind when girls hold her, but she bites and starts crabbing if men hold her- are some gliders gender specific?
Natz- i wasn’t planning on keeping her diet like this. I’ve researched what they can eat and carrots and corn is acceptable. I’m wondering what would be good to start her off on.

Help me my sugar gliders are dieing!!!?

We went away for a couple of days (my sister took care of them) and when we came back our newborn baby was dead. It’s been a few days and we went to feed them and the smallest adult looked really sick. I stayed up late and tried to make him feel better. We live in a small town and we couldn’t find an emergency vet. I made him comfortable and went to bed and in the morning he was dead too. We have two more and I am terrified they will die too. Please help I have read all I could and I don’t think we are doing anything wrong. Any ideas?
