I have a couple of grays Twinky & Bonbon Baby. They have twins a little over a month out of pocket. They are my babies but anyhow my daughter brought me a white-face. Shes cute as a button. The guy told her that it wouldn't be problem housing her in the same cage. Well let me tell you it is far from being ok. I mean i know she will have to get use to her new enviroment and bond. I had no idea that night around 2am im up trying to separate them, i had to put a divider in the cage. Both of my gliders was jumping on her. So know i have separated but on top of each other. Still they try to fight. Does anyone have any suggestions? Will they ever be able to be together in a larger cage? i was feeding them just last night an the cage doors were open and Bonbon got hold her (Boo). It is also making it hard for her to bond or she is just mean.
Please don't try to introduce them again. You will not be able to introduce them together until the joeys are weaned. Right now those parents are in protection mode. Gliders can be very territorial and can kill another glider for coming into their colony space.
Once the joeys are weaned you will need to swap pouches for a while and then swap cages to get them used to each others scent.
Introductions are best done in neutral territory,like a bathtub in a glider proofed bath room.
When I have done introduction, after I introduce them in the bathtub I put them in a bonding pouch which I carry for the day and I scrub the cage they will all go into and clean all toys and give them clean fleece and pouches. That way there is nothing in the cage for them to get territorial about. You should also give them more than one pouch.
Hi, Is there any way you can get another cage for her??? That would be best as It sounds like they are an established breeding pair and they may never accept her. In fact they will probably never accept her.
