er.. can we dilute the cranberry juice that u can get it from pharmacy? the one that normally human use for UTI prevention or perhaps treatment?

neway i hav a ques regarding the diet for a sg.. i'm a college stud, i stay in hostel therefore i hav no access to the fridge on the weekdays.. with no cold storage available, i had limited variety of food and vege to choose from too i guess.. n i'd learnt that using airtight container for storing fruits and vege doesnt quite helpful.. so actually i'm thinkin of providing my sg for a diet as below :

staple : instant bugsy HPW (since i jz need to add honey and water)

vege n fruit mixture daily for (Ca:P -> 2:1) :

1) carrot + honeydew + papaya (1 tea spoon of ea) -> *roughly adding up the ratios = 6.27:3*
2) apple + carrot + papaya -> *roughly adding up the ratios = 6.39:3*
3) pear + honeydew + papaya -> *6.74:3*

n other combo that i'm still figuring out with the options of fruit n vege i can get..

*judgin from the ratios mainly 6.00++: 3, if according to maths it's more or less stil 2:1 rite?*

supplements : gliderade twice a week + small mealworms 2-3 per day?

say if it's liek a rotate the combo once every 2-3 days??

is it ok if i give staple + fruit at nite when the sg wakes

then food in the morn when it goin to sleep n i leaving for class i jz gonna giv staple..

is it ok?
pls do correct me if i'm wrong in any sense..
THx!

apple and pear if i dint cut it can stay in room temperature.. jz tat for honeydew and papaya i might havto buy daily from nearby fruit store.. hmmm.. i might b thinkin of gettin a mini fridge if it's affordable.. any idea hw mch for one? for the hostel rules it's stated as no pets, but ther's no pet raids ever happened, most oso they'll demerit my marks.. not a big prob..

lol i jz googled it too.. i jz wan a very very micro one but price = 300-400.. seems very costly and way out of budget if it's lidat, i rather invest in other things for the sg.. summore i'm might not b stayin permanently in the hostel.. i guess the choice wil b getting from fruit stalls gua..

o ya.. regarding the wodent wheel, i read earlier that if too much toys for start the joey might nt be interested in bonding with the owner rite? so actually we shud intro by stages to stages? *thinkin of saving up some money b4 getting the wheel*

thx divas and eric

@yueyi : ok no prob, i wunt be shy =p

hey wnna ask.. for wodent wheel, shud i get wodent senior or jr for new joey? cox from the description.. wodent jr is for small sg, wodent senior is for sg. lol.. it says in the package of instant HPW do not use raw honey, the honey we use to bbq and sold in supermarket is not considered raw honey rite?

okok thx.. haha definitely the wodent wheel wil be a sr.. my wallet is very petite.. lol

hey, hw long can a package of instant HPW lasts per glider? anybody ever tried it out? cox according to petshack it's 3-4 months but i heard my fren sd it lasts for 1 month ++ oly.. thx..

jz went to 1U petsmore today, i saw the sg at display ther, totally huge and i guess a lil obese, but i heard the shopkeeper claiming to b 8 months oly.. =.=

haha.. i overheard the conversation when another glider owner sd :" i hav a glider too, 1 years old, bt also not as huge as tat lol.. well it's still kinda subjective i guess regarding the size..haha..

anyway thx again!

@a13solut3

i dun noe if i'll telling the right thing, but it's jz my thought..

the pre-premature joey is pink and u can see the organ, so it is very very very young, at that stage normally he/she shud be in the pouch, for first mayb u can try to create an environment similar to the pouch for he/she's survival? (warm and aseptic).. but regarding the diet/ nutrition i hav no idea..

jz my 2 cents..

@eric138

my fren's feedin Bugsy™ Small Carnivore Food to her sg, will u reckon tat's a better and ezier to serve compared to instant HPW which needs honey?

@yueyi5730
thx a lot i'll remind my fren then,, haha

anyway RIP to the pre premature joey~

yesterday went to mines's PLC, saw 4-5 underaged sg cuddling together with no proper pouch to sleep.. haiz..

this may help u..

u can get it at fish shops or pet shops easily..

lol i suppose ea sg gt their own attitude jz like human, mayb yr sg particularly like to poo on yr hand cox feeling comfy wit yr smell? perhaps yr hand's warm it feel comfy of poo-ing? haha..

er. yogurt drop and meallies are considered treats rite? if we giv an approx 2:1 Ca:P ratio of fruits, is glidercal stil necessary?

finalyl some ppics?
haha..

wow divas.. tat's hell of a bungalow for him/her.. haha.. *thumbs UPPP!!*
