Hey you seem to know much about sugar glider and would like to ask how do you know that sugar glider is a female or a male and do they have the same behaviour? and i am interested in buying one do you know where can i get one? thanks.
ReplyDeleteHazmi : Its quite easy to know which is male and female once their reach maturity . Female sugar glider will have a pouch on their bellies and males will have a bald spot on their top head . If you interested buying one you can find at some pet shop , some of the pet shop are selling the price is RM350 if i'm not wrong
DeleteThey behaviour is not same , normally female will chase away or bite the male. Is a part of maiting ritual , if it gets to rough you may have to seperate them for a few days.
