So, all three of my gliders' tails are not big and fluffy like I see in so many glider pictures. They are full of fur, no bald spots, but all skinny. Is it genetics? A colony preference to keep the tails groomed down? Am I doing something wrong? Or am I just nuts? It can't be the season, I've been observing their tails for over 5 years and they really don't change much. I know it isn't diet. I feed Critterlove with salad #3 (their preferred salad). https://photos.app.goo.gl/Qx62QUZ3iqg9okkbA

Their tails look good.
You may be thinking other fluffy gliders have fluffier tails but an over weight, chunky glider has a fat tail which could be making the tail appear fluffier.

Yes, Conner had a fat tail. It probably caused some of his three amputations.
