sadly it does look like he may loose 2 toes in those pictures. (the vet will let you know. I also think a e-collar will be a good idea to help him leave it alone.

I have terrible news!! And some good news.
I'll start with the terrible news. Our female glider passed away today. We aren't sure what it was. It might have been depression from being apart from her bf these past few days or something else. She was always fed fruits,vegetables, and hpw diet. It was really sad.

On the bright side, the male gliders foot is doing much better. He is still on antibiotics. I will post a pic for you tomorrow.

Here Is the problem that we face now. We have one male glider who has always been by himself (not neutered). And now we have the one with the messed up foot who was with his gf for two years (neutered), but now he doesn't have a gf to go back to. How dangerous is it putting both males together?

I am very sorry for your loss.

I would not introduce them to the other male until you get the other male neutered.

The boys will fight, possibly to the death or severe injuries over the female.

Once neutered, and the testosterone levels go down you can introduce them.

I agree 100% with Feather. They should not be introduced until the other male is neutered and given time to heal completely.

That will also give the other's foot more time to heal as well.

Personally, I would not try introductions until the foot is healed and the neutered is healed. Then go slow with the introduction.

As promised, here is a pic from yesterday.
As you can see, the foot is less swollen, the pinky has less black on it. And he is using the foot more now to grab the bars.



He's still in a small cage. Like a bird cage because we didn't want him to move arundel a lot. Since the female was the one who passed, would it be okay to put him in the large cage now? It's four stories. I feel so sad for him. He has all that room now with no gf.

And for the others who replied, the female is the one who died, so they wouldn't have a female to fight over. Would they still fight?

And.. how much is neutering a male glider?

Yes, an unneutered male and a neutered male could still fight. Usually when I leave boys together they are together from weaning or they are siblings.

I see nothing wrong with putting him into his large cage, just keep an eye on him.

Male glider seems like he is going to make a full recovery (did not lose a toe). Pinky is now nice and pink (not black). He is now in his big cage. Now I need to find another female for him before he gets depressed of loneliness. He was looking all over the cage for his gf. So sad.
