Wah! Give beer to SGs? No comment. If they're like hamsters, as in cannot vomit or burp, then it will be very dangerous.

She only ate a little bit of papaya, and even then, she spat out most of the flesh after chewing it dry. dry.gif She won't eat the other fruits I try to feed her: apple, honeydew, raisins.

The glider mix is yours, I got a small amount from snx8 the other day. The pet milk is Pet's Own lactose free milk. Stored the milk in a jar cos the box kept spilling, but I don't think it contains any soy.

She's getting really fussy these days - won't drink the milk unless she licks it off my finger. At first I thought she didn't like cold milk so I warmed it up a little bit, but didn't make any difference. She only takes a little bit of the glider mix too. Maybe I'm overfeeding her? I'm not very sure how much a 6-week old joey eats...

I think you need to give some changes into her diet and see. Too much papaya makes the poo light coloured and soft.

Also, what is in the glider mix? You made it yourself or bought it from someone?

Pet Milk, what is inside? As in ingredients.... is it lactose free? Got Soya products inside?

Normally the sound your glider makes, well, it would make that sound if suffering from bowel movement(constipation). It normally is coz of diet....

as glider also an animal with routine....if u everyday handfeeding...might posible he will refuse to eat any other than u hand feed him in the future...
pipol says minimum must play with glider for certain hours....but I find tht is the routine they set for the animal...once the animal get use to it...it became very very dependant on the owner....as in glider's farm...no body every play with the glider there...but they make $ n $ for the farm as all the baby are exported out....

this is just my opinion....pls correct nugget if any1 have a diffrent or maybe the correct idea...thanks..

Oh oh... found this good site but I will highlight the food you should NEVER feed gliders.

  "Aflatoxicosis:

    A hepatic (liver) disease caused by ingestion of aflatoxins, which are toxic metabolites produced by certain fungi in/on foods and feeds.  At highest risk for contamination are corn, peanuts, and cottonseed  Aflatoxins are also carcinogenic (cancer causing).  Sugar gliders can contract aflatoxicosis by eating crickets who have been fed contaminated corn, or eating peanuts.

Cat Food Complications:

    The two major and potentially fatal complications gliders experience from eating cat food are lumpy jaw and intestinal blockage.  Diets that are high in cat food also lead to calcium deficiency, liver problems, and, in some cases, death.

And for you guys to know more medical issues of gliders:

Wah... you got a picky eater hahaha.... The milk and glider mix is fine. A joey from the same batch as yours every night finishes 1 teaspoon, eat until sleep in the bowl...

But it is strange that she is not eating much. How many times you feed? what time? In the mornings you can leave a piece of fruit. At night, wait until like 12am or when you see she is active then place a bowl inside. But if she don't take much glider mix and fruits, give her all the milk she wants. Yes, she might not want to drink from bowl now, so you can let her lick from your finger or you buy those sterile syringe and feed it about 5ml every meal.

Actually, my glider was like yours, won't eat anything else but apples a bit only. Slowly I intro her different fruits along with the mix, and then only see her eat a lot.

Whoa. Today BabyBoy bit my little brother on his butt -- it must have been painful because my bro cried. Funny thing was, he wouldn't let go and was just hanging there. Ouch!

And with regards to glider's stinking as they grow older, oh no, I hope it won't be that bad. BabyBoy's about 8months old now, I guess. But he still doesn't smell. His pee has a funny smell to it though -- it smells like something that's burning. sweat.gif lol! But other than that, thank god he himself is smell free. Hehe~~~

Lol yes very picky, but it's worth it. I feed her at dinnertime, around 6 - 7 pm, and a little before I sleep, around 12 a.m. Then she wakes me up at abt 7 a.m. by barking, and I thought she was hungry but she only took a little milk and mix, then only wanted to play when I was all "zzzzz". When I think about it, I might be over-feeding her because initially I was quite worried that she didn't take any water so probably over-compensated with milk.

I went shopping just now for droppers to feed her milk with but could only find the syringes. Can I use those more than once if I wash it, or do I have to dispose of it after one use? The lady at the pharmacy was very amused when I told her what it was for.

Anyway, thanks so much for the help and the responses all! I'm probably over-reacting a lot - small thing also panic panic. blush.gif Tomorrow I might go shopping for a blender to make fruit smoothies in - my mum will kill me if I use hers for my glider's food haha.

You can use the syringes more than once. I use it a few times before I throw away.

Hahaha... looks like your glider ok lah.

I use my mom's blender... aiyah, only fruits mah, nothing dirty so it's nothing. This also is proof that the glider mix is safe to eat hahahah... even humans also can eat.
