Earlier this evening, my little boy glider thought it would be fun to fish around for some left over tid bits and drinking the milk out of my bowl after I finished some cereal. He seemed way too happy for me to make him stop. I was wondering if it is okay for him to have some for an occasional snack (it was honey nut corn flakes). Thanx for your suggestions.

The cereal itself probably won't hurt him and only let him have it as a treat but don't let him have milk. The milk has way too much lactose and their bodies don't tolerate it well and could cause him diarhea. Their own marsupial milk has very little lactose or none at all, I forget exactly which. Yogurt is more natural to them and that is what they can have in dairy products. So good luck and have fun! smile wink raspberry
