The first thing you should take care of is that you buy your sugar glider sugar bear strictly from a valid USDA license holder because the rules and regulations of USDA are only to promote the health of your pet. You should therefore meet the breeder in person to buy your pet and never buy them online. Hold the adult animals, as most breeders will not allow strangers to hold the babies. All the adult animals with the breeder should be friendly according to the training by the breeder. Therefore if they are not, or if the animals are zipped up in pouches, avoid that breeder. Since you will need the advice of your breeder to raise your pet, make sure the breeder is professional, passionate and knowledgeable. Your breeder should provide good quality support and other educational programs and also have a good customer service for your queries and probable emergencies later on.
Your sugar glider sugar bear should come with a written health guarantee, and also a 2-3 day replacement period after purchase in case of any unlikely events. Also, good breeders give you a longer paid replacement period. Male sugar glider sugar bears should be neutered free of cost. You should purchase your sugar glider sugar bear when it is ideal to bond with your pet, which is 8-12 weeks out of the pouch. You may need to pay upfront for your sugar glider sugar bear and this isn’t unusual, as they breed very slowly and availability is low.
There is a lot of illegal selling of sugar glider sugar bears taking place, and you should avoid them at all costs to fully benefit from your new found pet. These illegal breeders go out of their way to slander the really reputable and genuinely fantastic breeders by posting in some chatrooms and message boards. Therefore you cannot trust these sources too much and make sure you get your information from reliable sources.
