Message: My question is about the calcuim in my gliders diet, I'm worried they aren't getting enough of it ( also my one female had twins before I got her and lost both, read this might be a lack of protein/calcium problem so I want to be extra sure this doesn't happen again )They get a large variety of fruits and vegies ( fresh and frozen ) a nite, plus always have a bowl of lowfat high quality cat food ( rarely touched though ), They also get mealworms and cooked chicken, love both.. so I know they are getting their protein, but I'm having problems getting them to eat yogurt ( plain with fresh fruit added or fruited varieties ), or cottage cheese <~~~ will eat alittle of this sometimes, I try to act "slick" and mix in some apple sauce but doesn't help much. I purchased repcal with vitd in it, but my one female wont touch anything I've sprinkled it on, not even a meal worm ( she usually TEARS into them ) I'm worried about her calcium especially since she had a baby right before I purchased them. Does anyone have any other ideas on what I could try giving her, she will eat hardboiled eggs with the shell on them, but I dont want to give this too often and I dont think shes getting all that much calcuim from the shell... and they all seemed to hate the Leadbeaters mix ( maybe she tasted the repcal in this also? )I read a post on here where someone said Soy milk, anyone else have luck with this before I try go out and get some? Any ideas appreciated! thanks
