You cannot tell when a sugar glider is pregnant. The gestation period in marsupials is short, and the young joeys are bean-sized. It is only possible to tell when a female sugar glider is carrying joeys in her pouch when they grow much larger.

The baby is only the size of a grain of rice when it is born. there is no way to tell until the baby begins to grow in the pouch of the mother, where it climbs after being born. That being said, you may get some hint by actions, such as being more defensive or aggressive. While growing in mom's pouch mom kind of looks like a pregnant cat. Do put all hiding places on the floor of your cadge. they can be injured from a fall, or starve if an inexperienced mom does not retrieve them. then do not other then feeding disturb them. wait till the baby is haired and venturing. then hold often. Carry them in a pouch hung around your neck ,and stick a clean finger in once in a while.

What it means when your female glider hisses?

By glider, are you referring to the sugar glider? IF so, hissing can have multiple meanings. Hissing can be a form of communication between sugar gliders, but it can also have other meanings. It could be a sign of fear, if the sugar glider is scared. It could also be indicative of problems, depending upon what the glider is doing while hissing (ie. if she is urinating while hissing, this is a sign of a UTI). Also, some female gliders hiss a lot while in heat.

Putting sugar gliders of the same sex and different ages is not a good idea. You should pair sugar gliders when they are young and both the same sex or if male and female they should be neutered otherwise gliders have a tendency to reproduce like crazy.
