Another Question Regarding New Joey(s)

[jenz1988]

Hi Guys,

Sorry me again!

I just had a quick question.....

We think that Angel might only be having one joey.  If she has a male we were thinking about having him castrated as soon as he can be (which is 6 weeks isnt it?) if we do that, can he live in th cage with Angel and Archie??? like a little family??

Also, if she has a single girl, we're obviously going to have to either sell her on, or get another male in a different cage, she wont be able to stay with parents as dad would mate with her wouldnt he?

many thanks in advance

yeah he would deffo matew with her. I dont know if a unneuterd glider and a neutered can live together, so wouold have to ask another on here.

Why dont you get the male neutered then if it is a girl, you can keep her.

If it is a male you can get him neutered, but he should be at least 12 weeks old.  If it is female yes dad will mate with her when she is old enough unless of course you get him neutered.
