we decided to try and get him out of the cage and it went great played with him for a while and now we cant get him in the cage…we have gone through half a cup of yougurt trying to lure him into the cage and the pouch and we have no way to get him in..help please..
we got him by trapping him in a large container and waiting for him to go into the pouch…then grabbed the pouch and put him in the cage…thanks!!! the wife and i were soooo frustrated with him…from now on its tent time til he learns to come to us

I am considering purchasing a sugar glider joey and I am kind of not hoping to spend extreme amounts of money on a cage. I was wondering if it’s ok to build a cage for the animal. And if so, what materials should I use? (Preferably non-expensive).

someone gave me a sugar glider with accessories and cage the other day and a list of how to care and feed it.
the first day was day 3 on the list on his feeding schedule and i gave him lettuce and his dry food with the glider booster. then yesterday it said for him to have dry food only and he only ate 2-3 pieces. ive made sure to filter the water, i have fresh fruit for him as well.
ive been told at the local pet store that i can give him crickets and mealworms, can i put the booster powder on them? i just want to make sure that he has enough calcium.
with the ice-cream mixture i make for him, do i just take a small chunk of it and put it in there frozen or thawed?
i live in lenoir, NC and he came from the jamestown fleamarket, is there anywhere else that may have the booster for him or do i have to make a trip out there?
okay you may have misunderstood me.
im not giving him a crap load of food. i HAVE fruit for him, meaning that i have the food when he is supposed to eat that on his schedule. and no he has not over eaten. he ate a bit of the lettuce and the dry food not all of it!

This is my sugar glider Clipsie. My mini dachsund Precious is just infatuated with her. When I’m not supervising them together –Precious usually sits outside the door to Clipsie’s room and whines for her for hours.

I’m was wondering what the best cage for a sugar glider would be… not too worried about the costs, I just want the absoulute best environment for my upcoming pet. Thanks!
