PAST: So. . . I have had two brothers that I rescued a year ago. They were not fixed yet. A friend of mine's son got a male glider and decided he did not want it anymore, so I took it in. I spent 2 months introducing them. I had not taken it to the
vet yet but they were getting along great and getting in the same pouch and playing. I put them together. They have been great together ever since. With that being said, it has been my realization that George is not a George but is Georgia. It is a girl. No boy, which was not what I thought. I thought he did not have a pom pom or scent glands yet because he was younger. I even inspected "it" when I got "it" for a pouch thinking why does he not have a pom pom. I did not find a pouch at the time that I could see. (Yes, I know I should have taken "it" to the
vet before putting them together - regret
)
PRESENT: She is still in with the boys. They have been together for 3 months. I thought it would be okay if she had a baby and I could fix the boys and keep them all a family. Fix the baby eventually if it was a boy. She seems to do a lot of hissing when someone gets in the bag with her off and on but sleep peacefully all day. She has a box with a hole and a blankie in that she loves spending time in. Not sure if she is nesting. She is
bonding with me, mostly because she follows the boys
She hangs out with both boys privately. lol
FUTURE: I have no clue what I am doing. I have read a lot of stuff, but I still have no idea. I don't even know if she is pregnant. I feel like it is just a waiting game now.
Question 1: Is the hissing normal? I am afraid to separate her at this point, especially if they will be a family, and I do not want her to lose the baby from stress.
Question 2: Is this just a waiting game at this point? Do I need to be doing anything at this time? Any prep I should be doing?
Question 3: Can Maury reveal the baby daddy?? haha
Thank you for taking the time to read and respond. I love my babies
