Sugar Gliders!

[kiwibaby]

Besides my red eyed tree frog, Kiwi, these two monsters are my other babies. If you've never had the opportunity to experience a sugar glider I would highly recommend it as they are extremely enjoyable animals.

Oh they are SO adorable! I wish they were legal in California We can't have Sugar Gliders, Hedgehogs, Ferrets, or Axolytols legally here ........ Thanks for sharing such Cute pics!

Are yours de-scented, as I've heard it can be done. And do they really have an odor if they are not de-scented? I believe it is with the males.....

Yeah its sad they are not legal there. I kind of wanted to move to Cali after college but wouldn't be able to take my little monkeys there I didn't know axolytols were illegal there was well. I've been meaning to look into those for a while. There are very cute.

Mine aren't de-scented, but they are both neutered males. Sugar gliders have a very unique smell...kind of fruity and musky but its not gross and overpowering thankfully. Also, you really only smell them when you approach the cage if you keep them clean. I hear the females also have a scent but less than the males. I also hear neutered males smell much less than if they are not neutered. Mine don't smell too much really.

The best thing about sugar gliders is how much they love you if you give them the proper bonding time. Toki especially is a sweetheart and greets me everyday by climbing on to my hand and licking me.

I have two Chopper and Digger. They are lots of fun, but everytime I try to go to bed they start barking at me to come and play with them again. So no sleep for me I don't really mind I'll sleep when I'm dead hehe.

Here are my boys

Odd, the pictures won't load. There is a large black white space there

And yes, their incessant barking can be quite bothersome if you are trying to get to sleep.I think I prefer the barking over the crabbing though! Oh its such a terrible noise! Luckily mine, don't do that too much anymore.

My Mom calls the crabbing their "Evil demon noise" It is quite scary the first time you hear it.
