I just found out something today.


The sex of my sugar gliders.



I mean, it was inappropriate to ask them myself. While their doing their business, I realize one of them has this thing hanging around below their abdomen. Just to be sure, I(being the shy and well mannered person that I am.heh) then went on google and typed in:

"HOW TO TELL THE SEX OF YOUR SUGAR GLIDERS!??"

Good old google provided me with great answers. I basically clicked on the 1st thing that popped up and it was written in point form. Point form,man!


Step one
Turn your sugar glider over so that its belly is exposed. Hold your sugar glider securely but soothingly. You want to make your sugar glider feel comfortable while you are inspecting its anatomy.

Okay, blah blah blahhahaw...


Step somethingsomething

Look for a small, furry bump located further down the abdomen as an indication that the sugar glider is male.

That's it! The little furry bump that looks like a hairy mini marshmallow! Did I just spoiled the squishy goodness of mini marshmallows for you?

Yaknowwhat? All this time..ALL THIS TIME.. I thought he was a she and that's pretty degrading, even for a sugar glider.


Now, her name which used to be "Yzma" is now officially changed to "Zim". Don't ask me why. Let's just celebrate.
