? gliders

Question
i have 2 male gliders and there mother recently passed on was wondering if could reintroduce them with the father so he won't be a lone glider. they are almost 3 years old and the father is 8.

Answer
Chrisi,

This is a tricky situation.  Male gliders are territorial.  Usually there is only one dominant male in a colony.  Since your joeys are brothers, they get along.  Gliders have a long scent memory, and the joeys might remember their father, but they might not.  I suggest you go through the introduction process and see how it goes.  You can find the process on my website:  nc.sugar.gliders.googlepages.com.  Let me know if you can't open the document.  

I have not encountered this situation before.  I would like to know if it works.  Please let me know.  Good luck!
