Hi Marsha. Yes we have had one for 5 years now. Good points- If handled when
young they will be every friendly, very easy to feed( fruit and veggies, cooked
chicken, They are meat eaters- nothing with seasoning on it, (ours loves Honey
nut Cheerios also) Bad points - They are nocturnal so they sleep all day, can
only play with them during the night( great if your up all night), males have a
very musty odor, can be very stinky if cage is not constantly cleaned, will
bite if not handled a lot. My son built a big cage for ours out of three large
bird cages. One on top of the other. Sugar gliders like to race around and need
lots of room. A small cage for an animal like this is really cruel. I
personally would never get another one. I have realized from this one that
these are wild animals being forced to be domesticated and they should be kept
in the wild......... I hope this has helped you to make an adult decision
about getting one.
