Definitly don't want to feed the leadbeaters with anything except the fruits and veggies as suggested, by the way which modified version are you useing? She is new, and so are the surroundings, as Kim, said at first you want her to feel SAFE, she may be overwhelmed with all the noise. By all means Yes still get her to a vet..if nothing else just to have the piece of mind she is okay.. The gliders have an extremely large adrenaline gland in comparasion to other mammels, they can literally poison their own sytsem if they get to stressed. You may not ever get her used to the sounds in that room, she isn't afraid of you if she sleeps in your pocket. she trusts you, that is why the sounds don't bother her when she is with you,. congrats on that..Now you need to re-enforce that trust you are building with her by protecting her from ANYTHING, that may scare or frighten her. Mine after all this time, as bonded as they are, still doesn"T like the sounds from the TV at night, certain shows really throw them for a loop. car crashes, fight scenes, gun shots etc..you must at all costs, make her feel safe.. when the lights are down low is when they do get up, they are nocturnal, so they prefer to play when it is dark and quiet (as a general rule)You are mixing way to many diet plans together, as kim said all that fruits, as well as the avacado (I read what you said about a little bit), but it is okay only a tiny tiny bit a few times a month, I would never suggest more than that.. Good Luck Wesley..
