You may come across certain discounted gliders that come as cheap as $100-$150 but you should avoid them by all means. Also, you should never buy your sugar glider sugar bear from any internet breeders. Instead meet the person selling you and make sure he has a valid USDA license.

However, in reality there are readymade pellets of food prepared especially for sugar glider sugar bears that is extremely healthy and nutritious and more importantly, much cheaper compared to any homemade food. Typically it costs about $10 a month to take care of one sugar glider sugar bear, which is cheaper than most other pets like cats and dogs.
