Hi, I have decided to get a pair of sugar gliders and am now in the planning stages. The only thing that is still of confusion is diet. I have been looking at the HPW diet it seems easiest and has the best reviews. Is that the case or would BML be better? I have also read that they should be given a dry food during the day incase they want a snack. I am very confused so any help would be greatly appreciated! I will do whatever they need no matter how complicated so whatever you think would be best. Thanks

Well, the simplest answer is...there isn't one, unfortunately. Some swear by BML, some swear by HPW and lots don't feed either. The dry food-absolutely not necessary. There are exceptions but they should not have a reason to wake up during the day and eat. With my 6, I've never seen one out during the day eating in almost 3 years. Here are some links:
