I feed 25% fruit, 25% vegetable, and 50% protein 2:2 ratios. I dont think its approved, and i dont know how many people use it so im going to call it "Fresh" in the poll. Which captive diet do you think is most "nutritionally balanced"? Maybe why you think so too? Sorry, i didnt realize there was another one like this. But there werent any answers :) |

First - there is no such thing as an "Approved" glider diet. There are no specific nutritional guidelines stating exactly how much protein, fat, or vitamins a glider needs daily. There is no committee or governing body that "approves" any glider diet.
There are a variety of recipes for glider staples. Everyone feels their choice is the "best" most "nutritional" diet for their gliders.
Your poll is more of a 'popularity' question than a nutritional one.

The best diet is one your gliders will eat, and is good for them.
The one I feed also isn't listed. |

My gliders aren't on any particular, named diet. They just get a random mix of fresh fruits/veggies (as long as the Ca:Ph ratio is 2:1) along with occasional baby foods (chicken or turkey), apple sauce, oatmeal, or yogurt..cheese yogies every now & then, as well as crickets/meal worms about every other day.
They gained weight and their fur looks better so I don't feel the need to measure every thing every night and follow some strict code, as long as I get their Calcium right. :) |

I vote other.
I voted other because there is really no "Best" diet. 50 people Gliders can like HPW orginal, it may be "Best" for there Gliders, But it won't mean nothing if your gliders don't like it, and won't eat it. The "Best" diet is The one your gliders will eat. I'm pretty sure everybody on this site has switch diets because there gliders won't eat one diet. You just have to see what diet your gliders will like, and eat.

I feed Reep's Wombaroo Diet, sometimes I see it referred to as Reep's High Protein Wombaroo Diet. I think it's the same diet valkyriemome is referring to when she mentions the "Wombaroo High Protein diet."
Here's a link to a page on this site with the recipe and nutritional breakdown:

I think you can't merge all the HPWs like that! They are completely different diets.
Plus, there's the Wombaroo High Protein diet you forgot, in addition to the Blended Diet Jeremy mentioned. |
