My glider has been licking the brick walls of my apartment. I was wondering if I could/should get him a mineral wheel for mammals. Any advice?

Yes, it does contain salt and is alot like a salt lick for horses. If you give your glider a "healthy" diet, they should not need the mineral wheel. You would be amazed at how much sodium, magnesium, chloride, etc. is in food. What are you feeding your glider?

Too much salt is bad for gliders...I would stay away from the slat and mineral wheels.
