Has anyone else ever noticed their gliders being more sleepy during the winter months or when it is cold out? I have had my boy for about a year and a half now, and I seem to remember this happening last winter too. He doesn't seem to want to play as much and is more interested in sleeping. I thought it might be because of the cold, but I have a heater by his cage that keeps the room at about 75 degrees for his playtime. I just wanted to know if anyone else has experienced this, or if it is normal.

Same here for mine...I'm not sure why though... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/nixweiss.gif" alt="" />

Same here. I'm sure they are a little like us. I sure don't feel like doing much when it is cold out:)

HEYHEYHEYHEYHEY

WHat about snowmobiling and snowboarding there are lots of things we like to do in the winter??

Maybe not with the gliders but none the less

Mine become lazy bums when it gets cold. But I love it because that means my babies spend more time down my shirt during playtime to keep warm <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cloud9.gif" alt="" />

Mine too will sleep more, it just started getting cold here yesterday,(SC) and last night they stayed in until alomost 9:30 where they will normally come out to play with me around 7 or 8. (My two first gliders, anyway). I add a little extra bedding (fleece pieces, some t-shirt pieces) to help keep them warm and my male "Big" will drag some pieces all over with him, funny guy, Mr. Big!

I live in texas, we dont know what the word winter means ( i can see mexico from my backyard) I want my glider to be hyper, but she's still young so thats ok, that means i get to kiss her and hold her and dont have to worry about a flash of fur running up and down my body.

mine are also less active.
at first they woke up at 9 o'clock and now it is almost 12 befor dady glider makes nois ( he is always first to come out
