    Her "um um ums" aren't the reason you should trust him over her. That just means that she didn't rehearse much for the video and was just sort of talking conversationally. A lot of people say um when the talk normally.
    The reason you should trust him over her is because he is the fucking President of the Association of Sugar Glider Veterinarians.

    Watching the little guy climb in his pocket when he puts him on his shoulder is amazing :D

    Thank you for making these informed videos....I like to be informed before deciding on a new pet for my daughter. I appreciate the time you've put into these videos. :)

    my golf coach had one and she use to let it rest in between her shoulder blades when she was at golf practice or running around her class room at school.

    Actually I believe they are legal in Georgia as long as "the owner possesses valid documentation that the animal originated from a source inspected and regulated by the United States Department of Agriculture."

  • @PandaBearSaysRawr
    @PandaBearSaysRawr 11 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    they probably aren't meaning to. they might be walking around their cage above the food and using the bathroom as they walk. They aren't like people, thinking to look where they go. I'd suggest either moving their food to another part of the cage, or investing in a "glider kitchen" you can make one yourself for about $10

    If I ever get a pet of my own, I'll definitely consider a sugar glider. I think they look like great pets. I have nothing against cats and dogs, but it would be nice to have something a little smaller.

  • @Kelter82
    @Kelter82 14 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Thank you for your videos! Good to hear from someone who is an ACTUAL expert.
    You said they need to "go" every 2-3 hours... is this only for babies? Also, if I am away from home for a few hours and they use their cage as a potty, are they very messy about it?

  • @ginaoh207
    @ginaoh207 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    I trust your information the most. I eventually want to get one in about a year or 2 from now and another video here on youtube by a girl who made videos from Expert Village said they cannot be potty trained at all. This video is proof that you can potty train them if you give them some time.

  • @ginaoh207
    @ginaoh207 14 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    about how long (weeks/ months) does it take for a baby to become fully trained so you dont have to use the newspaper and baby wipe technique?? Are there any signs they try to tell you they need to go to the bathroom besides when they wake up?

  • @queeblo545

  • @sdegroot1
    @sdegroot1 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @RawrGuitar1022 Actually they are legal in Georgia, but you have to purchase them from a USDA licensed breeder and have proved that you purchased them from that breeder.

  • @AlbertoMuse

    @RawrGuitar1022 Sugar Gliders are the exception to the rule if you have documentation on where you procured your sugar glider from a usda approved breeder.

  • @P0kaym0n
    @P0kaym0n 11 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Great video... Do you think after a couple of times doing it you can use voice commands to help them relieve themselves... I noticed these creatures will respond to voice commands because if you call there names they will come

  • @DarkstarFiveOH
    @DarkstarFiveOH 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Im getting mine tmrw and only thing is i think its going to have to get use to me first before i can just grab it like tht because he will crab and bit and if i go to grab him train then it will maje him scared even more.. So how do i train him?

  • @ElanaVital83
    @ElanaVital83 13 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hmmmm...It's certainly easier then potty training my 2 year old niece! It's no different then having to walk your dog every morning and night. Only you don't have to carry an umbrella or worry about getting a ticket for not aiming it at the curb.

  • @ploker99
    @ploker99 13 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Also my sugar gliders are about a year old, I've had them for about 6 months, would it still work to train them this way?

  • @ejstras
    @ejstras 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    My mom hates little animals like that but because of your reasurring videos and thurogh information you've actually made her change her mind seeing as how your a professional doctor but another information person on youtube said how horrible they are and they pee all over you and bite you hard but with your videos and knowing you are a certified doctor it makes me fell safe knowing I can go to you for help. And that your vids aren't lies to help marketing like some saying they are easy to care.

  • @Gaz10t
    @Gaz10t 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    So, after a few months of doing this, will the glider ever go itself in a designated area or do you always have to hold the glider over that area?

  • @briabre331

  • @ABluishBaby
    @ABluishBaby 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Im 15 and in high school and i want a sugar glider.. but im at school for 8 hours a day and i cant bring it with me...so how does a sugar glider go to the bathroom if im not home to "stimulate" it? My parents are both out of the picture because they cant mess with feces ect. and they say its MY responsibility.. so what do i do?

    "Well-bonded sugar gliders love to hang out with their owners, and mine spend the majority of their time sleeping in my pocket, all day long. In fact, once you've got them trained, you'll notice that about the only time they wake up is when they need to go to the bathroom."
    ... This sounds like the most boring animal ever. Seriously?

    Me and my family are deciding on wether or not we should buy some sugar gliders. There is no doubt they are beautiful animals but we are qorried about the potty problem.. We have a family friend who tried to potty train her sugar gliders speant hours trying to train them using this technique and they would aloways end up leaning her "presents" they also would do thid outside of their cage and make a huge mess ! Any suggetions we should use if we do get some sugar gliders ?

  • @geezthomas
    @geezthomas 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    after the training, do they do this by themselves? or do you have to go through this everyday?

  • @A_Wild_Dyzzy

    I'm planning to purchase a flying squirrel and I know that sugar gliders are closely related to them. I was wondering if these videos teaching how to care for a sugar glider would be similar to taking care of a flying squirrel. thanks! :)
