Sugar Glider Weight & Health Log

Weigh weekly in the morning before feeding. Persistent weight loss is often the first visible sign of illness.

Weigh the glider inside its sleeping pouch, then subtract the pouch weight — never chase or force a stressed glider onto a scale.
Use a digital gram scale accurate to 1 g; zero it with the pouch first.
Same time each week: morning, before the first fresh meal.
Keep records even when values look "fine" — trends matter more than single readings.
Healthy adults most often sit between roughly 95 g and 160 g, with real individual and sex differences; joeys track an upward growth curve instead.
