is there a difference in the pampered glider OHPW and critter love complete, critter love plus? What are the differences? I think the complete critter love versus critter love plus you just add water (it already may have powdered eggs, honey, bee pollen, and hpw powder all in there?)? But are all 3 or both the diets (OPHW the pampered glider and critter love) the same? recognized providing studies showing they do well on it with enough calcium, vitamins, and protein? I don't see ingredients on the critter love staple mix . . is it OHPW diet actually or something else? Would both be ok as in either one or is one much better recognized staple diet than the other? honest opinions info please?

I guess also what I'm trying to ask is: are they both OHPW diet? same ingredients? Or are these two very different things? and is either a good staple diet or is one much better than the other?
any help much appreciated . .sorry for being confused

They are a very similar diet. I'm not sure what the difference in ingredients are (haven't looked into it). Both are a good staple diet. I personally prefer the OHPW (that's what I feed) but that's just my opinion. Either will work well.

ok.... story as I know it... peggy invented OHPW using the wombaroo powder from Australia. It is a
good diet the gliders will love it, use RAW honey with no combs. I get filtered
from local supplier $41 a gallon. But many copycats and no ownership rights,
plus supply disruptions all got peggy to have her own MADE IN USA powder and
copywrite version. I believe this is the cheapest way to make OHPW, with wombaroo.

peggy makes to versions, complete.. just at water. and plus which you make up
like the OHPW version. (I have never used the plus.) these are very similar to
the wombaroo powder, but peggy owns the rights. I think they are a little more
expensive, but havent done a calculation in a LONG TIME. My gliders would eat
complete and they were vet checked healthy. BUT once given OHPW they like this
alot more, ate it up much faster. I have never used PLUS and believe it will have
the gliders eating it up like wombaroo because it doesnt have the processed honey
and eggs the complete has. Also some of my readings have people concerned about
the powdered egg and honey and how that is processed to make critterlove complete. I dont know if any of that is true, but my gliders eat it for a few years and vet
checked healthy.

complete... most expensive, gliders will eat fine but not like OHPW, quick
and easy to make, mix and freeze.
PLUS and OHPW ....I believe are almost the same, gliders will love them and
plus could be slightly more money, but local USA made and probably more reliable delivery. I have never had problems with delivery of complete or wombaroo from
the pampered glider website.(that site seems cheapest for wombaroo._

all will be healthy for your gliders and they should eat it just fine.

thank you both for all the help!
