The detail
Creme ino is a recessive sugar glider color: a cream to pale tan coat with red eyes, produced by a gene that reduces pigment in fur and eyes. Its eyes are more sensitive to bright light, so it needs dim lighting on top of standard glider care.
- Origin
- New Guinea, Indonesia and Australia
- Best fit
- Night owls who can keep a pair
- Care load
- 5 out of 5 (Diet prep plus dim light)
What to weigh
Red-eyed gliders are sensitive to bright light and may see less well, so the room and cage need to stay dim. Everything else, from diet to companion, matches any glider.
