Nothing, honestly, even if there was it's not something I'd be willing to discuss anyway! Wink

from my personal dealings, my glider was sexed wrong when i took it to the shop and it was not a young glider, the dietry advise was as i have discovered very poor with bad supplements and and food items not really adequate especially coming from someone who always states that they are the only uk member of the isga. unless things have changed recently the adults in the back of the shop were not really housed good enough in a large enough cage. Also as these animals are social and needing to be able to of bonded with humans so they are the amazing pets they can be with no one in the shop in the evening this wouldn't be achieved. Gliders diets and care has changed a lot in recent years but the advice doesn't seem to of changed.

its a long one Embarassed amey zoo is my local rep shop and i have never had any problems, my sisters has also been going there for years with no trouble and mark has checked over many of there reps, i got my first snake a corn (amber) from him about 4 months ago, he asked loads of questions when i bought her like what temp to keep them at, what basking temp, what substrate and so on as he wanted to make sure i knew my stuff and was happy to answer any questions i had. im planning on upgrading her living space and am going to take her in to be checked over as he don't mind. i was also planning on getting my gliders from him (it surprises me that ppl have had bad experiences) when i asked about gliders he explained they are not your average pet and need special care and time and that i needed to take a lot of things in to account like housing and dietary needs and pet insurance and find a vet that can care for suggies before hand etc.. he also advised me to get the biggest cadge i could get (room etc and if i couldn't fit a big one then they wouldn't be the best pet to get) witch i was going to by from him (5f - 2ft i think) when i was next in we were going to discuss it further, he also said that if i didn't have a suggie already i would need to buy 2, i think one is £150 and he does 2 for £200 think i was going to check Smile as he wants them to go in pairs. i have been on glider girls forum which has great info and help at hand tho i need to get on computer more lately as you can't get to much info Smile and am not sure what info mark has gave me that is wrong

There is a thread on Sugar Lumps that could answer your question Pamela.
