Oh geez! My bad! I read what I wrote and it seems I should proofread from now on.
You are so right. It does require boiled eggs. 3 for a whole batch and 1 1/2 for a half batch.
Thanks for pointing this out. I hope that I didn't poison anyone's gliders. But, I still feel it
is the nastiest stuff I have ever made!
: I went back through and read posts that I hadn't seen - I found one that needs to be discussed.
: It was under the heading of 411 and was posted by Tara. This is what it said
: : What is leadbeaters?
: Cat, : Leadbeaters is the nastiest concoction that I have ever made in my life!
: But my babies love it. It's a mixture to give to your gliders as a main part of
: their diet. Here's the recipe: : Warm Water: 450 ml or 15.2 oz
: Honey: 450 ml or 15.2 oz
: High protein baby cereal (I use oatmeal): 75 grams or 2.6 oz
: Vitamin mineral supplement (Vionate) 3 tsp.
: these are the directions I was given: mix warm water and honey. In separate bowl,
: blend eggs until
: smooth. To eggs, gradually add honey/water, then vitamin powder, then cereal,
: blending after each until smooth. : Okay, if you have a blender throw the water, honey and eggs in and blend until smooth.
: Then add the dry stuff one at a time
: blending until smooth after each. The above makes a LOT! I cut the recipe in half.
: That lasts over two weeks. the serving for two gliders is Two teaspoons.
: My hint to you is to use an ice cube tray and measure out two teaspoons into each
: cube and freeze. It doesn't get rock solid, but firm. If you have one glider, then just
: use
: half a cube each night, or the whole for two gliders.
: Vionate is a multi-vitamin/mineral supplement that can be found at a pet store,
: probably better luck at a store with a lot of reptiles. That was my experience.
: Another brand name is Prime.
: I got the above stuff from the lecture notes of Dr. Johnson-Delaney, given to me by
: my vet. (just wanted to identify the source). : I'm sure this is more than you needed, but I hope it helps.
: Tara
: It sounds like this recipe uses raw eggs . . . Am I the only one that read it this way?
: I think that is very dangerous. The eggs should either be boiled or scrambled. Raw eggs can contaminate and kill.
: If anyone sees this and follows it - could be horrible.
