My new baby

[Moclobe]

This is my new baby sugar glider

 

[alby]

awww look how cute he is

 

[peterjohnson64]

You Victorians are so luck. Our NPWS wont let us keep anything like that. Alby, what are you doing this afternoon?

 

[Jason]

man i am so jelous right now, did you get that from pails? i ws looking at them yesterday. i wish nsw npws would let us get them and maby even wallabies, all we can get on a marsupials liscence is hopping mice, and it costs $60 for two yrs just for the liscence, if we were alloud to own them i would get my liscence in a heart beat and get one. that would make and awsome pet. i would love to see some more pics. do they eat nectar?

 

[Herc]

very cute indeed.

 

[peterjohnson64]

I had a wallaroo when I was at school but it kept jumping the fence so in the end I gave to Symbio Animal Park at Helensburgh. But that was 1983 (before most of you were born)

 

[Jason]

what do we have to do to get npws to add more animals to the liscence?

 

[trader]

he is SOOOO beautiful moclobe!!! something my hubby keeps suggesting we get... :wink: Have you ever kept one as a pet before?
Enjoy...Kind Regards, Judy (aka HerpTrader)

sorry to bring politics into this forum but a change of Government is the only thing that will change NSW licensing laws. And judging by what happened in Pittwwater yesterday that ain't gunna happen in my lifetime.

Just when I was starting to think you were a decent sort of chap, Pete. Wouldn't have picked you for a nasty right-wing conservative Liberal! I, too, would like a beautiful little fur-baby like moclobe's but must we really sacrifice ALL our freedoms just to get fluffy critters. Oops, sorry, forgot you were in the army. Howard loves a soldier! :wink:

 

[reptililian]

Oh dear, hope you realise I was just joking, Pete.

 

[peterjohnson64]

I knew you were joking follwoing previous mentions of "Hippys". And I will be calling in 10 minutes!!

 

[reptililian]

Yeah. Those damn hippies! If we want to wear deoderant and concrete the world, we should be allowed to!

 

[Surfcop24]

Oh kewl.... I never knew you could get those on a license in Victoria or anywhere for that....... What marsupials if any are allowed on a Qld license....?? Anyone know????

 

[Moclobe]

Jason, No I got her from a private breeder and yes they are nector and fruit eaters.

Judy, This is the first time that I have kept them. When I got my female I was expecting and adult. However after laying eyes on her and having my first cuddle I was not disappointed getting a baby. She will go outside into the aviary, with the male, when she gets a bigger.

None

How much for a pack of 6 fuzzies? My coastal wants a change from rats

 

[peterjohnson64]

You're in Junee Craig (know any Dobson's - I'm related) so you can't buy these remember :lol: But otherwise, it would add variety at $1,250 per six pack. maybe all the GTP's would flourish with native food.

Yeah, I know Nathan, (I think thats his name, everyone just called him Dobbo).

 

[SLACkra]

i am pretty sure i saw one of these guys a couple weeks ago. small fuzzy critter seemed to land on the big euk out front, climb up it then i saw this thing glide off. i presumed it was a sugar glider.

how large is the aviary? what did the breeder say you would need to feed him?
