: i have lately been feeding my glider a more choice diet where she has more to eat than just fruits and vegetables.Well lately when I stopped feeding her all those extra goodies she hasnt eaten her baby cereal or any of her fresh fruitsand vegetables. Im worried she wont eat at all now that I took away all her extras.Please help.
I tried to change the diet of my gliders, and couple of poeple told me to do it slowly. Like put in something new and take out somthing old.
They are used to what you've been feeding them and aren't used to eatting anything new. Introduce the new diet slowly. That's what I'd suggest.
Little Bit my male glider, will pick up the new food smell it lick it. If he doesn't like it in the first few seconds. He throws it at me
or outside his cage. He's not big on trying ne things,but Wickit is. Good luck trying to new diet.:)
