As far as me and breeding goes...

I have 3 females and 1 male.

Cerulean I got at 10 wks from a friend and former hobby breeder (AmyMichelle). I am unsure of her lineage past her parents, but could find out if I felt the need to. She is a petite glider and I will not breed her because of that.

SweetPea is a rehome who I do not know the lineage or oop date of. She will not be bred for that reason and because she is rehome. She was bred in her former home.

Tiki is a retired breeder. I bought her with the promise that she would never be bred. She is my leu and has had several joeys in her former home. I could easily obtain her lineage from Judie.

Cobalt is my neutered male. He was sold to me as sterile, but some of the sterile males are proving out so I had him neutered to prevent Tiki having joeys. His lineage can be seen here. http://www.thepetglider.com/index/content/view/21/49/

If it wasn't for neutering, Tiki and Cobalt could not be in the same cage. I tried for 2 months to intro Tiki to the girls, but it didn't work. I brought Cobalt home and they curled up together the 1st time they were introed. I am thankful for neutering or my Tiki would still be alone and overgrooming.

Thank you for respecting my view though you disagree. Though I could go on and on regarding the origins of my stance on nuetering, it all boils down to the fact that for me, population control in my home is simple. Don't mix genders if I don't want babies. I feel that it's much more simple, safe, gentle, and natural then removing/cutting/snipping/however the nuetering process is done.

I also respect the opinions and perogative of others who do nueter. I'm not trying to force my views on anyone else. If anything, I am the type to generally not worry about what everyone else does, so long as it doesn't adversely affect me. C'est la vie!

Then what do you do with all the male gliders? Female pairings are fine most of the time, but male pairings are not as likely.
