Did you make the gliderade according to the recipe I gave you a few posts down? If so, that is probably the reason they didn't like the gliderade much. I told you to mix 1/4 tsp powder with 1 tbsp water, when what I meant to say is 1 tsp water. Well, the ratio of powder to water should be about 1:5 so 1 1/4 tsp water is more correct. Mine don't like it when I put too much water in it either.
: Here is my schedule on feeding, leadbeters, about a heaping teaspoon, fruits, watermelon, honeydew, cantalope, apples, mango,papaya, star fruit, kiwi, they don't get this every nigt, I mix and choose, whats on sale, then also on the plate is baby food fruit, I save the meal worms for when I am trying to coax them out of there nest box. I put 3 or 4 omnivore pellets out for them, figure its good for teeth, and so far they don't think much of the glideraid. I am feeding parents and 2 babies who are about 12 weeks oop. Please if anyone thinks I should do different or this is a good feeding chart. Give me your opinion.
: Feeding seems to be the biggest question, whats right or wrong, so many new gliders at christmas, folks are begging for answers. I am to new at this to feel I can be of any help.
: Thanks to you all for ylour help to us begginers.
