![]() ![]() We currently maintain a USDA class A license. Then, in 2014 we decided to return to what we love doing and reapplied for our USDA license. We were USDA for 7 years, but in January of 2011 we decided to change our focus while our family transitioned to a new home. My family and I spend several hours each day bonding, handling, and playing with all of our animal friends and their babies. We have also become an unofficial rescue, as we will never turn away a sugar glider or hedgehog in need of a home or proper care. I spend a lot of time educating potential owners, maintaining our web sites, and making toys for my pets. My hobbies include teaching math and science, sewing, web-design and programming, photography, and caring for all my beautiful animals. Our family resides in Andover, Ohio, which is about 1 1/2 hours east of Cleveland, Ohio, 1 1/2 hours north east of Akron, Ohio, 3 1/2 hours north east of Columbus, and about 1 hour north of Youngstown, Ohio. We have a blended family of 3 daughters and 2 sons. I married John Chandler on July 9th, 2011 a wonderful man and my best friend. I am the primary caregiver to all of our sugar gliders. This includes email/text, private FaceBook group, and phone support for emergencies. We offer support/education throughout the life of each sugar glider we sell. Then, we will help you find the perfect companion(s) to fit your exceptions. Before you purchase a sugar glider, we will help you decide if they are right for you and your lifestyle. Not only do we consider color and genetics when pairing all of our animals, but temperament and desirable physical characteristics as well.Īs a breeder, our goal is to find knowledgeable and permanent homes for our sugar gliders.

Though threatened by feral animals, bushfires, and land clearance for agriculture, sugar gliders are considered to have stable populations in the wild. They’ve also been observed systematically searching tree cones for spiders and beetles. They feed on nectar, pollen, acacia, and eucalyptus tree sap. Sugar gliders have a flexible diet that can vary according to location and season. That, along with short periods of reduced body temperature called torpor, helps them save energy on colder days. To keep warm, sugar gliders sleep huddled together. ![]() ![]() In parts of their range, winter temperatures can fall below freezing. The young stay with their mothers until they’re seven to 10 months old. Females have one or two young, called joeys, at least once a year. In addition to forests, they’ve also been found in plantations and rural gardens. Sugar gliders nest in tree hollows with up to 10 other adults. They have mostly grey fur but their underbellies are white, and their heads have black stripes. As nocturnal animals, they see well in the dark with their big black eyes. Often compared with flying squirrels-rodents with similar bodies that can also glide-sugar gliders are more closely related to other marsupials like kangaroos. Their “wings” are made from a thin skin stretched between the fifth forefinger and back ankle, and they use their bushy tails as rudders as they soar through the air. These common, tree-dwelling marsupials are native to tropical and cool-temperate forests in Australia, Indonesia, and Papua New Guinea. Sugar gliders are palm-size possums that can glide half the length of a soccer pitch in one trip. ![]()
