The detail
Red ino is a recessive sugar glider color with a warm reddish-tan to cinnamon coat and red eyes. Like creme ino, its eyes are more sensitive to bright light, so it needs dim lighting on top of the same diet, companion and nighttime care as any glider.

What to weigh
Red-eyed gliders need a dim room and may see less well. The color can vary in depth, and as a recessive trait it needs carrier planning for breeding.
