Sugar Sensation

Sweet , healthy  joeys for your delight

My gliders are fed a modified HPW diet, mixed vegetables and a fruit smoothie daily. Mazuri 5MA5 (New World Primate) is always available to them in their cages. I have had great success with this feeding program and I'm sure you will too! Here are the recipes that I use to prepare the diet and how it is fed.

Modified HPW

1/2 Cup HPW powder

1 1/2 Cups of Honey

2 tbs Bee Pollen (Jarrah Australian)

1 Cup of water

1 Cup of Naked brand Green Machine Juice

3 Cooked Scrambled Eggs

Blend for 2 minutes on high speed, pour into freezer safe container. Offer  1 to 1.5  tbs daily per 2 gliders

Fruit Smoothie

Use 1 lbs fresh cut fruit salad (Cantaloupe, Honeydew, Watermelon, Strawberries, Blue Berries, Banana, Kiwi, Apple, Mango, Pineapple)

Not all of these must be in the mix but they are the most common I find in salads here.

1 lbs of Papaya (fresh or frozen)

8 oz Activa Vanilla Yogurt

Blend till smooth then  freeze in  ice cube tray, once frozen pop them into zip lock bag. Offer 1 cube  nightly per 2 gliders

Mixed Frozen veggies to consist of Carrots, Corn, Green Beans and Peas. Offer 2 tbs nightly per glider.

Mazuri 5MA5

Offer it free choice in cage at all times.

I recommend you use 2 water bottles on your cages at ALL times, as these have a tendency to drip and when they do can empty immediately. So PLEASE CHECK THOSE WATER BOTTLES.
