-B-


Bald spot: The term used to describe the scent gland that a male glider develops on the top of their head. It produces an oily secretion that slicks down the hair giving the appearance of hair loss.

Barking: A form of communication between gliders. By barking, a glider can let other members of the species know they are there and gain their attention or a glider could be calling an alert to other members of the colony to warn them of danger. A gliders bark sounds like a bark from a small puppy.

BB: Black Beauty.

Belly rub: Suggie looks like it is trying to rub something off of its belly and is a front to back motion. Like a wave motion. Males maybe trying to rub their chest gland on object but have also seen females do this behavior also.

BEW: Black eyed white a/k/a "leucistic" or "leu".

BML: Bourbon's Modified Leadbeaters.

Bootie Dance: Both male and female gliders will perform the "Bootie" Dance. During this performance, they will keep their front feet stationary and swing their rear back and forth over an object to mark it or claim it as their own.

Bra Baby: a glider who will stay inside their Mom's shirt either lounging in or hanging on her bra for an extended period of time.

Do not self-diagnose
If you feel your glider is sick, please seek immediate veterinary assistance. The information on this page and in the correlating articles is for general educational purposes and is not intended to replace proper vet care. Please do not try to self-diagnose or self-treat your glider.
