thought about it AFTER I posted, maybe I should look on the can of tuna??? duh>
anyways, on a can of tuna in spingwater:
.5g of fat (not bad)
no sat.fat
30mg.of cholest.?
250mg sodium?
0g carbohydrates
0g fiber
0g.sugar
13g. protien (good right?)
2% iron
no calcium or vit
the very last ingredent is salt, so I don't think there is much salt.
well what is the verdict good for them
not good for them
thanks.

I know several places have stated not to feed gliders food high in sodium...so i dont know if what you stated is too high or not..it probably depends on how much you plan to feed them.

Tigger,
Are we talking store brand (parts is parts frown ) or name brand such as Gortons smile. You're not actually talking about catching, cleaning and
preparing your own fresh fish sticks wink ;)

Well we tried the tuna in spring water. Just a little, as we ran out of Leadbeaters. THEY HATED IT. My darling little Patrick THREW it at ME. Gues I got the idea. Boy did they eat thier veggies and fruit. Guess they were hungry.
So no more tuna for these guys. IT really feels awful when you have it on you. (Patrick throws everything he doesnt like.)
