Subject: Mealtime Variet
Posted by KarenE on February 26, 2000 at 16:16:58 from 205.188.199.47

I have four gliders (Charlie Brown, Linus, Lucy and her joey Patty. The problem I'm having is enough variety to
keep them interested in their food. Charlie Brown and
Linus are pretty much meat and potatoes kinda guys, but
Lucy and Patty are pretty finiky. I'm having a particular
problem getting all of them to eat a variety of fresh
fruits. They don't like apples, bananas, pears, peaches,
watermelon, strawberries, raisins. They pretty much
only like grapes once in a while, cantalope occasionally
and sometimes oranges. I feel like I'm always feeding
them the same things.
Any suggestions on increasing their range of foods.
I've even tried lacing some fruits with honey, but guess
what - mine don't really care for honey.
Can you buy a nectar supplement.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
