wow some people are jerks anyways i really like your videos and i think you provide a very good resource of information! thank you so much!!

The diet this woman suggests preparing in her other videos is the reason why they smell. If you feed them chicken, mealworms, insects, they smell from the high amount of protein.

you can use a leash. the leash i got wet around their neck, not tigt but it did, and it clipped on to my shirt. you can go outside and they do need get bored with their diet so switch it up.

You forgot to mention anything about not giving them citrus...

@owzzer9 They'd spread their weings and glide awayyyyyy.

Leashes are not meant to be used every day; they are when you are bonding with your Sugar Glider, so in the instance that they take off (which they will) it's easier to grab the end of the leash rather than tackling the suggie.

It's not to leash train them. :)

@TheKazdorf correct

[tuttiwu2]

taking them outside is dangerous also leashes the foods are correct with not having them

[Sarabazzar]

She forgot to say to never pick up a sugar glider by it's tail. .____.

my glider love to bite. do you have any idea why ? and your tips is very useful thankyou..

(continued) Of course, a BETTER idea would be to move it in it's own pet crate, or in one of those little waist pouches they make for carrying small pets. That would be much better to do.
