The breeder I purchased my glider from is well aware what’s going on. He has the soft poops and he had the runs day one. Which could be from stress and is getting better. He was oop 3/27/2017 and very tiny In my opinion. Now his penis is hanging out and I’m keeping eye on it and lubricated every hour to 2 hrs. Please tell me guys is this all normal? How do I post pictures?

How do I post pictures? Welcome to our family. I would be interested to know who you purchased your little fella from since you are in Little Rock. He is now about a year old, so having soft poop/runs for that long is definitely NOT normal. Have you had him to the vet to check for parasites? A vet check is definitely needed. What are you feeding him? This could very well account for his low weight as well as his unstable poop. Is he alone or does he have a cage mate? Sorry to bombard you with so many questions, but all answers could help. How To Add Pictures to a Post Your Sugar Glider Resource Center Sugar Glider Help

Depending on how old he is, when those little boy hormones start they do find their toy. Plain KY jelly works good for keeping it moist. Getting the little man neutered usually stops the playing with his toy problem.

His runs are getting much better now! His penis is still sticking out but looks very healthyand poop is like all around his bottom. I’m feeding him BML with his side of veggies. I also have critter care just in case I need food. Last edited by DeannaRamos; 04/01/18 02:17 PM.
