Agreed mealworms should not be fed everynight. I give my joey kitten food, greek yogurt with honey, and fruit. She is only a baby, if yours is an adult, it will need more variety. Joeys are easy as they cant handle all the varietys of fruit. (Citrus fruits)

Again, No it's not enough. Pellets are not a good long term diet for gliders as I told you yesterday on your other journal entry. Gliders neeeeeeed a nectar like staple not pellets, with measurable amounts of calcium and supplements in the staple. Other wise you run the risk of over dosing them with calcium. Fruits and vegetables should be part of their every day meal not just used as treats. meal worms are treats and are very high in fat so they shouldn't be used as their main source of protein. Most staple recipes have a protein source in it.
