sugar glider questions :)

im looking into buying a sugar glider but want to be well set up before i recieve one.
what size cage do other people keep their sugar gliders in? what do they enjoy eating? how "hand tame" can they really be and how long do they live for?
thanks everyone

u need a cage that they have room to jump in mines about 6ft by 1m,
they can get tame but there not good on there own ur suppose to keep them in pairs or in collonies,
they can live for a long time in captivity but less time in the wild in captivity they can live for over 10yrs
they like fresh fruit and specially mixes with calcium and small carnivore mix, egg, mealworms and crickets as treats
