:well i hope this helps at least a little.1.with the leadbeaters there is other recipes Bourbons just seems to be the one most gliders eat,or you could try putting her fruit in it and then she is getting some of it with the fruit but dont give up on it they do eventually eat it.
2.the wodent wheel and a hamster wheel are very different she might like the wodent wheel since they can get in it.
3.manzanita branches are good as well as grape vine and i know there are others but i cant remeber them all and you should be able to get them at a pet shop or craft supply store(just make sure it isnt chemically treated).there is also a place on the internet that is selling manzanita buy 1 get 1 free www.2xtreme.net-jwandro-page2a.aspl I think that is right if it isnt someone here probably has the correct addy.

Ok here they are
: 1. My glider wont eat bourbons leadbeaters. (i made it EXACTLY like hers right down to the rice and mixed fruit cereal!) Ive tried everything mixing with sweet stuff like baby food, juice, i dont know what to do! Also She seems to like stuff that is more solid.. she licks at stuff like baby food and i am not sure about the leadbeaters but she doesnt lap it all up, just kinda takes a few licks then goes for the solids (fruit,veggies,etc)
: Im worried that she wont get enough calcium and protein doing this!! =[ what should i do??
: ok heres number 2. She has a regular hamsterwheel
: its the kind with the holes ? not the round holes but the
: other kind. ladder style u could say?? Ok well she doesnt touch it except sometimes when shes running around the cage she jumps on the bottom of it and runs upside down LOL
: and then jumps off.. but it wont clamp to the new cage so now she has no wheel. Shoul I buy her a woden wheel? or should i just assume she doesnt like wheels??
: question 3!
: I know i said 2, but i just thought of this!
: What kind of vines or branches are safe for me to put in her cage? do i have to buy some or should i get some real ones?? and where can i get some fromM??
: Thanks guys!!
