From my understanding, gliders don't generaly like bannanas. Rafiki can't stand em' and won't eat anything thing with one in it. Is this right? Gliders don't like bannanas?

They do act like little monkeys at times though :-)

: Here is the recipe she gave me a couple days ago:

:
: Bourbon's Modified Version of Leadbeaters

: 1 4oz bottle Gerber juice with yoguart (Mixed Fruit or Bannana) both have yoguart mixed in

: 1/2 cup Honey

: 1 egg with shell (boiled or scrambled) (I Hard Boil Mine)

: 1/2 cup high protein baby cereal (I use rice with fruit bits)

: 2 teaspoons RepCal non-phosphorus with vit D3 in it. Pink and white jar (my petstore ordered it for me)

: 1/4 cup Wheat Germ

: 1 2 1/2 oz jar of Stage 2 Heinz chicken baby food

: mix it well in a blender, freeze in a tupperware bowl, or pour into an ice cube tray. 1 tablespoon per glider each night. It will freeze the consistancy of ice cream. If they eat it all the first night add a little more the next night till they leave only a little bit. This will feed 2 gliders for approximately1 month. After I spoon it into their bowl, I will mix in a few frozen veggies.. corn, peas, carrots. etc. In a side bowl offer other fruits and veggies. etc.. Also feed mealworms, crickets, moths . Mine won't eat the pinky mice, But if it is a bug.. Look out..Not too many of the mealworms though they are high in fat. If it moves, try it. In the summer the fav is man'o wars or skeeter eaters.. whichever people call them they look like giant mesquitos and june bugs.
