I read the original post about Pennie and after reading some peoples responses, where they questioning any for of delayed implantation, dispause, etc. Please explain to me how, a female glider in my possession, who had not been housed with another male for over 3 months, ended up with joeys IP??? Her last contact with a male glider was 6 MONTHS prior to the date her joeys actually emerged from her pouch. Turkey baster.

So to be safe how long would a male need to be removed from his family if their was a possibility of inbreeding.
I actually think this situation is one of those rare moments that we know may/can happen. To actually go through with a long (30days or more) separation from mate/family after a neuter because of a slim chance of still being fertile, I think has a higher %chance of causing stress than pregnating after a neuter. With Mary's gliders and their sitution- we can only speculate that the joey was produced and held in stasis after the neuter- but there can be a chance she was already pregnant by the older male before the neuter and held Pennie even longer.

Thank you Nancy. You said it better than me. I don't know and truthfully, that was part of the reason I hesitated posting (well, mostly it was because of all that was happening with Timmy). Whatever happened or who the daddy is, it is what it is. Not something I intended either way (with Bandit or Wyatt) but she is here and we all love her.

My question is can a glider choose not to have joeys IP. The glider pair that I have are a bonded pair and had joeys before they where rehomed to me. I was given the gliders due to family problems and was told that the female had joeys IP. I have had them for almost 4 months now and they dont have any joeys yet...and I really hope they dont. But I have seen them mateing every month. The female is not bonded at all to me so I am not able to touch her but I am totally bonded to the male. But when she is on the side of the cage there is nothing in her pouch. Do you think she might be pulling the joeys?? Or do you think that she is maybe choosing not to conceive?? Lori

Lori, It could be either - she may be holding the joeys in stasis until she feels more comfortable with her new home OR she may just be pulling the joeys when they are born. There's no real way to know for sure
