Subject: Fat female glider

Hi everyone!

Long time reader, first time I have ever posted. I recently aquired an adult female glider. She is considerable fatter than her mate. I wanted to know if this would cause any problems with her getting pregnant? I have heard two different things on this, some say it will, while others say it wont.

If so, how do I go about putting her on a diet.

Now she is being feed. Fruits..mango, kiwi, apple, grapes, banana's, plums, peaches and pears.Yogurt and applesause. Then they get vegs, a little corn, mostly peas, carrots, mixed greens, sometimes sweet potatoes and regualr potato. Then they get a night of meat. Chicken brest, turkey, baby veal, lamb, and sometimes prime cuts dog food.
They have rep cal along with wheat germ sprinkled added to the fruit and also in their libby's nector which they get every 3 days. I also keep brisky's and some dry puppy chow, and a monkey biscuit in their cage at all times, which they eat very little of.

Any suggestions to getting her slimer, she is basically on a pretty fat free diet.

Thanks

KillerBee
