There is a breeder in the Chicago area that found that adding selenium to the diet cured her glider of HLP.There is a bird supplement called Avian Advantage that has a good amount of selenium in it.I mix it with my Necton Lori as a regular supplement.The breeder's name is Debbie Dillon and has a book that deals with her experience with HLP. I saw it in Brisky's catalog. I don't have their URL, but if you look in the diet sections of some of the links, I've seen it there.
