I am having the most trouble getting my gliders to eat any kind of fruit. I have tried one method given to me by a woman who wrote a book on gliders and she guarenteed it to work but it had no effect what so ever. She said to take out all the food the gliders like from the cage at night when I feed them and to just put in the frest fruit and some fresh water. eventually it would kick in that the gliders would have to eat whatever I gave them. I tried this for two weeks but their helth began to fail so I put them on their normal diet a again and they are fine. In that two weeks nothing happened at all. I get up in the morning early and check on them and they FLY to the door of the cage begging for good food. Should i continue this method and if not, what do I do???? I need help desperatly!!!
