Bandit twitches from time to time when he's sleeping - only then, not when he's awake. is this okay?

My gliders do the same thing. I think they're dreaming

Yes, this is pretty common. It usually means that they are dreaming.
As long as your glider is NOT doing this while up and fully awake for a length of time. You will notice on occasion, when you take your glider out of warm pouch, or expose them to bright lights, they will shake/twitch for a few minutes or so until their eyes/body has acclimated to the sudden change.

Whew! Thanks! I figured it might be something simple because it only happens when he's sleeping. It's soooo cute! There's something about holding him in my hand while he does it, I get all warm and fuzzy inside. lol

Yep, sounds like normal behavior. Mine even bark in their sleep.
