Lil JayJay

Here is little Jay Jay. He is the son of Gip Gip and Dippy. I adopted Gip Gip last year when her owner, my friend Jennifer had to migrate to New Zealand with her hubby Jeremy. I was happy to take him in as I saw him grow up. When Jenni got him, he was so small, super underage and underweight. He was only 18g when I first saw him. Thankfully GliderSLURP saved him and he is now a big boy. I will continue about GipGip in another article.

JayJay is a cut little fella. Hopefully he will find a new owner soon. He has got a very cute personality. He stones a bit for photographs but he is very active. Slightly crabby but overall a lovely joey. He OOPed on 27 December 2009. He is not weaned up mom’s milk yet but look at his size….. amazing.

Now isn’t he adorable?

So if you are looking for a very adorable male joey, just email me.

An update on Naya

Naya, my retired female glider has been such a strong and delightful girl. Today, she has regained back most of her lost weight from her unfortunate incident with dead joeys in pouch. I brought her for a check up at Hands and Paws clinic recently. Dr Jenny said that she is healthy and fit, good size and good weight.

It is important to monitor you glider’s weight and appetite. So far Naya has a piggy appetite as she will eat anything and everything in her bowl. So she has now gotten a nice rounded figure but never overweight or obese. How about parasites? It is common in gliders that come from dirty pet shops or suppliers, so far my gliders are parasite free after going for check ups.

Glider Poop!

Once I remembered someone asking me to get a picture of glider poop. How does it look like? Dry or wet? Brown or black?

LOL, a healthy glider would have solid poop, that is moist enough to stick to your hand but never wet and runny like porridge. Colour can be brown, black, light brown, red or orange. Normally red or orange comes from the fruits it has eaten, like papaya or carrots or even watermelon.

The poop should never be runny. If it doesn’t hold itself like toothpaste, then it is a sign that your glider is suffering from diarrhea.
