HOw would one give pomegranate to gliders due to the small amount of meat on the seed? Are the seeds toxic? Would I have to separate the meat from the seed. I know the Ca:P ratio on this fruit isn't real good, but mine love the yogart with it in it and was wondering how I could give them a couple pieces on the rare occasion that I get one for myself.

I just put the seeds on the plate with the rest of their dinner...they just eat the fruit off of the seeds and leave the seeds untouched. Mine really like them a lot!

They are really good, but I gave up seems like I couldn't get much out of one.

Thanks for the information, I was a bit worried about the seeds. I was afraid they were like apple seeds or peach pit and were toxic to them.

I gave my gliders one for the first time last night. Just cut one into quarters and put it on their plate. They were all very interested in this new food and didnt quite know what to think of it.
This morning there wasnt a seed left.

Mine just eat the fruit and leave the seeds. The juice stains so a few of their pouches have red spots.
