Sleep schedule

[Patagium]

Anyone with flyers mind telling me their schedules? I feel like Benni is sleeping too much but not actually clear on what a captive schedule looks like. How many hours would you guess yours sleeps a day? When are his active times during the winter months? Any info is helpful

Beautiful Benni! My flyers seem to be only awake late at night and asleep by very early morning.

They sleep a LOT.
My boys wake up between 7-8PM. They are ready to eat at that time. They are awake at night but do nap at night also. When I leave for work at 5:45AM they are awake. I give them a nut treat before I leave. By 7AM they are asleep for the day. I would say they sleep more than 12 hours a day. I sure wish I could. If I wake them during the day, they are happy to wake up and visit.

Babies sleep even more than adults. Benni is adorable.

Thank you for the info!
Benni sleeps most of the day but seems to take lots of naps. I probably play a part in that because I handle him throughout the day. Is there a limit as to how much of the day they should be awake?

I guess not, but they are nocturnal so you are trying to change his natural schedule.
