I undertand your sentiment Please understand ours.... 1. This diet is an "open book." Unlike a lot of the popular diets out there, we actually publish a nutritional analysis associated with it. So how many makers of "popular" glider diets do you know, mr/ms anonymous that have even bothered to do that? Most of them are in fact based simply on popularity and internet myth.  2. Umm, yeah what's good for the gliders is why we spent years researching this. you either want to take advantage of that or you don't. So go ahead and try it and rate it good or bad.  3. What we are "begging for" is input good or bad. This diet is in its third iteration as a result of excellent input from vets, pet owners and our own observations at the rescue.  4. If what you say is true about doing what's best for your gliders, then look at the analysis, try it and compare it to other diets. In fact, get the nutritional analysis of other diets (if they are actually available), and take them all to your vet and ask which ones are worth trying. 5. As a 501(c)3 public charity we are quite accustomed to groveling and begging  So yeah we do a lot of begging to keep the doors open. Sorry, kinda comes with the territory 
fleetfox Joey 19 Posts I made this for the first time today. But, I accidentally put 1 cup of yogurt instead of 1/4! Is that too much yogurt in the batch? fleetfox Joey 19 Posts Yep, another question. I used a large egg because I can't find small eggs anywhere. Is that too much cholesterol? Thanks for all the help btw! LuckyGlider Zippy Glidershorts TX, USA 5266 Posts quote:

Josephine, I think if you are referring to the example recipe here: http://www.sugarglider.com/nutrition/viewrecipe.asp?item=15
If this is correct, then I don't think it is about papaya VERSUS mango as much as it is about papaya WITH mango. I am not sure what you are trying to understand, but if it is the nutritional analysis, all you have to do is scroll down the page all the way, and the recipe will show you the break-down of proteins, minerals, vitamins, etc. and will show you how much of each protein, mineral, etc. is in each of the ingredients. Let's take a look at the sample recipe (ignore the grapes, we now have evidence from vets that grapes should not be fed): The following screen shot is what a recipe looks like at the TOP of the screen. Note how each ingredient has its own color code. That color-code shows up in the nutritional analysis section so it is easier to see the make-up of each part: 
Here you can see that eric has both Papayas and Mangos in his recipe. As you can see, he has chosen grams sat he unit of measurement for each item. He is indicating 50 units of papaya which is the same as saying 50 grams. Now, here is a view of the "pop-up" detail when you mouse-over a specific mineral: 
Now if you scoll further down in the recipe you can hover your mouse over each mineral or vitamin, etc. and you will see a "pop-up" window that tells you how each ingredient contributes to that particular mineral or vitamin. In this screen shot, we are looking at what it has to say about Calcium. Here you can see in the pop-up window that Papaya is yielding 12mg of Calcium which happens to account for 70.2% of the entire recipe. fleetfox Joey 19 Posts Only about a tablespoon was gone from the plate. Still getting used to it I suppose. fleetfox Joey 19 Posts Yeah, I always give a mix of fruits and vegetables along with the soup. Isn't there a way of eliminating the anonymous thing? Why do we need it anyway? If people have something to say they should have the guts to just say it as themselves, sheesh this is such an irritation. Ed, I haven't used this diet, so I can't rate it, but I do respect all that you do for suggies. Flapjacknblossom2010 Glider 62 Posts Can I ask how much of the protein powder you use in the Suggie Soup? Sorry, I'm new at this! Would rather be safe with a positive answer then guess and make my fuzz balls sick! Thanks!
