I'v been doing a lot of research on sugar gliders, and would like to get one or two as a pet. I live in ND, and I can't find them anywhere. Does anyone know of any breeders in my area?

They are really cute!! You can do a search and maybe find some site with pictures.But here is a short run down.They are marsupial(they have a pocket like a kangaroo).They sort of look like a small flying squirrel,as they "fly"too.They have large eyes and a small scent gland on top of their head.They eat fruit,vegs,baby food,etc.And hold it in their hands to eat like squirrels.Mostly nocturnal.And if you make them mad they make a noise that sounds like a small chain saw.LOL It is really cute.They can be bitey if not handled when young.And they have teeth like a cat or dog with canines so that can hurt.
