She does fine though. http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j225/Paula0442/Sugar%20Gliders/100_2238.jpg Last edited by Paula0442; 07/16/07 02:13 PM. Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming WOOOO HOOOO, WHAT A RIDE!!!

kims1984 Unregistered K	Thanks so much for the info. The lady is wanting to get rid of him and I am trying to decide weather to take him. Would he be able to go in with other gliders or would he always have to stay by himself?

Then I introduced her to Nara, who was 8 weeks oop at the time... they did great together You have to pick a companion for a blind glider carefully to make sure they will get along and help the blind glider rather than attack it I think introducing a joey would be the best option because they are less likely to push dominance issues.

We're working on it though and she is slowly getting better. Slow and steady is all you can do.
