Charlie at 2 weeks oop (you can see how he is lighter grey and is lacking the black bar behind his ear giving him the White face blond(WFB) coloring) He also has a blond(yellowy) tent on his face, which isn't clear in these photos:

Both joeys:

Charlie all grown up sleeping in my pocket:

I also attached pics of my little jowy that was rejected by his mother(Gracie), and sadly passed away despite us trying to hand raise. This is him before his eyes even opened, he was a very large joey for his age.

Have a male suggie named Ziggy, Stardust is on the way lol. Are you in the US? I've never heard of gliders other than the normal grey in the UK. They are fantastic pets arent they, cannot wait til Ziggy is a daddy!

They're so cute I would love to have a couple but I don't have enough experience or room needed for them. I would have to do a lot more research before I bought any

Yes I am in the US, I didnt realize until coming to this board that the color variations arent availble outside of the US. My favorite color is the leucistic, which is white with black eyes but I could never afford them

.

And yes sugar gliders are marsupials. They are found in Australia and New Zealand. If you are really interested in researching them and learning all about them, I would suggest going to the board Glider Central at GliderCENTRAL - Viewing a list of Forums UBB.threads™ this board is an excellent place for learning all about sugar gliders and their care.

best forum for sugar gliders is:

Sugar Glider Forums - Index

I have 6 gliders myself, and 4 of them are males and not one of them smell. My two girlies dont smell either.

Minimum size cage is 4ftx2ftx2ft, but the bigger the better.

OMG!

Charlie is such a pretty glider - he's absolutely gorgeous! I have a female called Bubble. I think the Leucistic gliders are so beautiful, it's such a shame that they aren't available in the UK. I would really love one of them too!
