Hi guys, was just wondering what is the best plan if you have 2 gliders, and one passes awy? Our 2 are 2.5yr and 2 yrs, so no worries for ALONG time hopefully! :hope:
As I know they need friends, so how long to get another one?
Cheers

I think a group of three is a betetr idea, just in case one passes away, you aren't left with a lonely glider. And they are less likely to show signs of stress if they have another "family member" there for support.

Lol... are they all kept together or separated into groups? Sometimes I have so many cages to keep, suggies to give attention to, and dishes to clean and fill that it makes me mentally bow down to any large scale individual breeders. *shakes head*

unfortunately i had to do this after losing my little guy after only 3 years was left with a very upset glider and the very hard task of finding a cage buddy while i was still mourning my other little man. Luckily found a girl locally not too different in age and looking for a home (ideal!) and now have adopted two more so i'm hoping i'll never have to go through it again! definately get three they don't cope well with loss!
