Lol! Congrats! All my boys are neutered and after 4 1/2 years of having gliders, I had never seen them mate...that is, until a few weeks ago when I caught them! Oh, my eyes!!  |

Should i separate the male from the female? I dont think that is necessary, but its not a bad thing to ask  |

Definitely not. The male helps quite a lot with rearing the joey/s and separating a bonded pair would be very stressful and probably result in the loss of the joey/s.

OK 2 weeks and 1-3 days past.
I dont want to stress her. but also want to know if she has any babies.
Yesterday night i was holding a waxworm and she jumped on my hand to take it.
Very carefully i was touching her belly, but nothing too thick to understand anything, except something very small like an air soft ball,like a small pimple...dont know how to describe it.
I know that 1-3 days old babies are really small but soo much?
Also another question is it possible that the mating wasn't successful?
Its her first time and shes a lit bit younger than she should be so i think its normal to have one babe if she has.
I am gonna wait 2 weeks more to see if it gets bigger.
Any idea??

Well, my first suggestion is to leave her be... Continue handling her as normal, but don't prod at her at all. If she's got joeys in pouch, you'll soon know about it.

Of course i will  Is it possible that the mating wasn't successful? Because it happens in many different animals. |

Well, its official now. We have one joey.  I can really feel it inside her growing every week. Also a big difference in her appetite, especially in insects and a huge difference on her behavior. |
