hi everyone, not sure i,m in the right place but here goes. i have noticed that quite a few on here have 3 gliders is that just a personal choice or is this a better choice for the sugar gliders as there used to being in larger groups, and if the answer is yes what is the best sex mix, i,m thinking male and two females....thanks

3 is a better number in case anything happens to one of them. It's a problem if one dies as you're left with one lone glider suffering from the loss of it's friend and coping with being alone can be very traumatic.

The sex ratio you can have 3 females, 3 neutered males, a male and 2 females. Just so long as males are neutered the ratio can be anything.
