What does it mean if your sugar gliders belly fur has turned yellow?

Answer 1

You are feeding your sugar glider the wrong diet. These are delicate animals which should not be kept in captivity, and they suffer easily from stress, requiring a specialised diet not only for nutrition, but to help them cope with the stresses of being kept in a confined space.

Answer 2

If a gliders fur is turning yellow there are a few possibilities:

1. The conditions in which it lives in are not clean, and so the gliders fur is becoming stained. If this is the cause, it will reverse itself over time if living conditions improve.

2. The diet that the glider is on is poor. If this is the case, it really needs to be fixed immediately. Yellowing of the fur due to this would mean that the glider is in poor health due to the diet. Changing him to a good diet would result in an improvement over time.

3. The glider is ill.

Since you do not know which,

you need to get him to a vet.

If it is a male glider,they have a scent gland on their head and chest. If the yellowing is on the chest of a male glider it can be from the scent gland,if it's not a ,ale glider and the yellowing is not where the glands are located then the above is very true and the glider needs to be taken care of immediately

Answer 3

If a sugar glider is having yellow stools, the sugar glider needs to be seen by a vet. This is not normal or healthy.

Answer 4

Yellowing of skin or fur requires a vet visit.

The cause could be a few things: Improper conditions (a dirty cage, or sleeping pouch), poor diet, or illness.
