My female glider "Kinkachoo" came out to eat tonight and her pinkie joey was just hanging out of her pouch. This joey is only about 1 week old still attached to her teet. Front and back feet are formed eyes are there. Still moving but just hanging oop. Mom is trying to lick baby and trying to put baby back in pouch but no luck. Any suggestions PLEASE HELP!!!!

I wouldn't put any sort of jelly on the baby or in the pouch.. although I am not completely sure, I believe that it could be a cause for a major infection.. and you don't want that stuff on the joey.. or sitting in mom's pouch. I would leave mom be.. normally they stuff their own babies back into their pouches.

Yep exactly why I said to wait for someone else!!! They recommend jelly on boy's privates when they are out. Good luck hope mom and baby go back to where they are suppose to be You're correct on that, but my thinking is that a mothers pouch has hair in it.. it's dark, probably moist.. the perfect growing spot for infection. Not to mention babies attach to the nipples so we wouldn't want them getting petroleum jelly in their mouths.

I'm sorry I can't offer any suggestions. I have absolutely no experience in this department at all. Are you able to hold the mom so when she tries again to lick the joey and get it back in the pouch, you can somehow assist, even by holding her in a comfy position? Is the baby warm enough, hanging on the outside of her pouch? I see you're registered now. I'm moving this to Breeding & Babies).

I didn't receive a phone call so I hope all is well with your glider & joey by now Please post an update for us so we know how things are going... If the joey is still hanging out of the pouch, about the only thing you can do is to try to gently open the mother's pouch and reinsert the joey manually. This has to be done very carefully or the joey could be dislodged from the teat. The other option is to let the mother take care of it and just let nature take its course

Thank you for all your help but sadly nature did take it's course and the little baby joey is gone. Mom is doing ok. it's like nothing happened. What i'm wondering though is, do you think this could happen again, or do you think something was probably wrong with the baby?

So sorry the joey didn't make it. Like I told you this morning, Mom would take care of the baby however she felt it should be. Talking to you it sounded like something was wrong with the baby. I was really hoping Mom could get it back in the pouch. But when you said he was dry looking that really worried me.
I hope you stay around. You sound like you know alot about gliders.
Welcome to GliderCENTRAL, and again I am sorry about the little one. Glad to here Mom is doing OK.

Thanks again Ellen and I'm sorry for waking you. Thank God for people like you who are there to help when you can't find a vet who knows much about these little angels. I plan on staying around. Thanks to everyone else for their suggestions and thoughts. Daddy is a little depressed but his other older joeys are keeping him busy. Frances

I am very sorry for your loss. It does sound like there was something wrong with this little one. As hard as it can be, mother nature does know best. Godspeed little one.

With the joey hanging onto a teat and out of the pouch... sounds as if someone was trying to pull the wee one out of the pouch. Babies being pulled out of pouch can be from the mother herself, her mate or another female if being housed with more than one pair of gliders. I am sorry for the loss of the wee one. Perhaps, next time around you will be blessed with full term babies from this mother.
