baby sugar glider ! how to take care of it ?

Question
I own a sugar glider which is just a baby. When I first bought, the owner of the pet store said that it is 2months. But after I done some research on Internet, I don't think it is 2months. But I think it is only a baby since the size is small not like my friends sugar glider. I also have read some articles that said baby sugar glider will die without her mom. I don't want it to happens. Can u help me? What should I feed her? What about milk? What milk should I feed her? Please help me :'(

If you cannot get the baby back to her mother.. then try to see if her will eat a lead beater mix.. gliders usually mimic their parents.. so there is a chance she will eat some.. Look up the recipe online or consult my prior replies to questioners for the recipe I use here..

if all else fails overnight some milk replacer like the one seen here http://www.sugar-gliders.com/possum-milk-replacer.htm

Feel free to let me know how she does..

Best of Luck!
