In your experiences, what is the best staple diet for general sugar glider health (and especially for healthy coats)? Any good staple diets for weight management as well? Both of mine are very skinny, even though they eat quite a bit. They haven't lost weight, but they aren't really gaining either.

Peas and corn help with weight gain I believe and flax seed helps with coats those are all part of the TPG staple diet but also the BML i think I’m not sure

If your babies are real active than gaining weight can be a problem they need a healthy fat for good coats (i.e. eggs avocados flax seeds) I give mine avocados and they love them. It's the first thing gone in their food dish. I haven't tried flax seeds yet. Keep trying new things to see what they like.
