Just a thought, I know NOTHING about gliders, is goat milk an acceptable replacer? One of its best qualities is the percentage of easily digested fat, we've used it often with all kinds of 'failure to thrive' animal babies with some wonderful results. We've used with puppies, kittens, rabbits and squirrels. It is easy to store if you find a source too far away (try health food stores or your local 4H rep) Just shake well and freeze in ice cube trays. Put the cubes in a zip lock bag, it'll keep quite a while. When it defrosts the fat tends to clump on top, but it's easy to mix with a fork. Any thoughts from experienced glider owners?
