I've ALWAYS love these names for sugar gliders,

Night Crawler or Spiderman lol, but I think Night Crawler would be best!

Congratz on the new girl, I'm too surprised she's got babies too, they'll be a fun experience.

Did he give you vitamines for the mommy sugar glider? Also one note, be carefull when putting the sugar gliders together, I took care of one but I gave it away to a friend who had another female sugar glider, well after seeing them get along so well the girl let them stay together too soon and my sugar glider killed her female (he ripped her tummy open) so now she only has the male I gave her (Billie)... really sad.

Anyway I'm up for pics of your new SG! =D

omg ... that's so sad about girl suggy.

I've heard they come so well in pairs (meant to be like meerkats) so I don't really know! the first night I've introduced the female to male slowly and carefully, there was no bickerings then they went into the same pouchbag overnight and things have been looking good so far.. how long did it happened after you gave billie to her?

per vitmans, she doesn't need it as much as I give her enough calciums and phosphorus, one too much vitman can harm the absorption of calcium, and other minerals too. she's enjoying her mango as much thatcher is with his grapes!

lol nightcrawler? I actually liked it - don't you think it's more of a masculine name?

hey niki, I like odette! celesta is also another name I'm thinking about.

allright, here's one thatcher picture, is all I have on this mobile and would have to start some with odette/celesta sometimes soon.

It happened about 1 to 2 weeks after putting them together, this glider that you have now is pregnet so I'd be extra carefull, but Billie was more of a humane loving sugar glider and was never with other sugar gliders all his life so he was more bonded to humans and probably thought of the female sugar glider as compition for him. I'm sure yours will be fine but just watch carefully for anything that might seem odd to you.

Well I'd use Night - Crawler for a boy or girl I unno lol, but if not I'd go with Odette.

Awww she looks SO adorable,

I really want a sugar glider but I can't untill we move.. oh well your photo's make up for not having one!

Isent it cute how they eat mealworms like candy LOL!
