Actually what time you guys will feed your sugar glider? Especially at night.
I feel my Ah Pit less eat in the morning so, she just sleep at there, but at night she act like hungry ghost when i feed her. When last time Ah Pit morning still eat alot, so i feed her around 10pm at night ( early than that time she won't eat. ) But now if i feed her around 10 pm she like hungry ghost jump out and eat. Is it i need to feed her early abit?

my mom sure scold me n ask me to study rather than waste time to glider.. need to move away from family..aih

Well,
To have the support of my family,
when i was schooling, i set apart exactly 3 hours a day for revising and study. Consistently doing it everyday. After that 3 hours, i will watch TV or play with pets etc. leisures.. and NO MORE STUDY..

My parents knew about my "3 hour a day" study plan as i told them, so they will never scold me for having leisures and playing with pets after my study hour.

Don't be discouraged by your mom ok?
Have a nice day..

Wah so consistent. I didnt have pets back when I was in school. My pet collection only start when I was almost out of college.

Vincent,

I feed my suggies according to their wake time. They used to wake up late before "puasa" time, like after 11pm onwards, but now they seem to be up after 8pm...

I will ensure there is food available for them when they are up. So I will feed them a little as soon as they're up and add more right before I go to sleep. Then when I wake up, I will remove what ever leftover and add a little bit more food, just in case they wanna nibble on something

-----

I used to keep pets "sorok2" from my dad during school days cuz my dad does not like me keeping pets... Lucky my mum was okay I used to keep them in my room lar...

Now I can keep pets easily(well not that easy... but atleast don't need to hide, except when my dad comes over my house ler )

Family will marah because they just want us to give priority to studies ofcourse. If you can prove that you are good at handling everything equally, then I don't think it should be a problem... However, keeping a glider while you are studying is a bigger commitment and challenge as they need a lot more care and attention.

when wanna take her out from the coconut tree she sure crab...last time if i blow at her face...crab...now no more...

lepas pegang oni okay...now still trying to bond with her...abu tak payah risau alraedy....


he okay with anyone wan...

Ok, i will check again when was Ah Pit wake up time, sometime when i look at her around 10pm, i saw her stay at sleeping house door there look like waiting food coming ~

Vincent,
This is best time to call your suggies.
When i call my suggies, they will peep from behind with inquisitively look, and in response to my calling, they will jump out..
I think they have recognised my voice now.

KP,
Apparently, your feeding schedule is similar to mine.
First, i give them their dinner in the late evening, then subsequently their supper. The next day, a light breakfast in the morning.
But their menu for super is only the salad, because i don't want the leftover to invite the colony of ants..

jaswwp,
Hi, would like to know about your pets collection and learn from your experience cos i am a newbie here..
So you have more time to take care of your pets now yeah?

Added on December 1, 2007, 7:32 amWhat should you do about a sugar glider who is a picky eater and who refuses to eat the healthy food you serve him or her?

First of all, you need to understand normal sugar glider behavior with regard to eating. You should expect to see some "leftovers" most nights. Sugar gliders typically eat part of what is offered, throw a part of what is offered around (hence the need for a "Critter Hut" or something similar to minimize your cleanup time) and ignore part of what is offered. This is normal sugar glider behavior. If you are expecting your sugar glider to lick his bowl clean like your dog does, forget it! That's not how sugar gliders eat. Additionally, sugar gliders will sometimes eat very lightly for 2 or 3 days.

Another type of normal sugar glider eating behavior is to ignore something the first few times you put it in front of them. That doesn't necessarily mean they don't like it. Multiple offers of the food over a period of days may be necessary before a glider will try it.

When dealing with a picky eater, remember that if permitted, a sugar glider will pick out its favorite foods every night and ignore the rest. In that sense, they really are like children. It is up to you to provide variety so that your glider doesn't eat the same thing every night.

If your sugar glider won't eat its fruits or vegetables, try feeding a fruit or vegetable first, after you remove all other food from the cage. Feed the rest of his food an hour or two later. If this does not work, then feed only a fruit or veggie for one or two nights. A glider usually will not starve itself to death. After one or two nights, he will probably eat the item in question.

If your sugar glider won't eat its protein, mix the food you want him to eat with something else you know he loves and can't resist. You can try mixing protein with low-sugar apple juice, applesauce, yogurt, etc. Use only enough of the treat foods to get your sugar glider to eat the food you want it to eat. Don't overdo the sugar especially. If you have a sugar glider who is refusing to eat his protein, you may have to try putting out only protein foods for a day or two, until your sugar glider is hungry enough to it it.

i got this from a website...problem solved...i think...

what do u guys think ?

I have try call her but she still like waiting food more than my voice . Anywhere i try for that see Ah Pit got respone on my voice or not.

It seems like your abu and suggies very manja2.. Mine is not exceptional as well, quite manja too. Even though they take it for granted sometimes, but love covers all.
Oh you want my salad recipe? Hehe..
Nothing extraordinary la..
I give them just a few selection of veges that are intended for my guinea and tort, like sawi, kangkung, carrot(they especially like this one), cucumber, spinach and the like.. i don't know whether oyster mushroom is good for them, maybe some may advice me on this.

I observe that suggies are fond of sugary food. I think veges are rather plain in flavour, so it won't appeal much to the suggies. If you were to put apples, mealworm and veges into a bowl and test them, they will most likely go for the mealworm first, then apples, and finally the vege. Do you all agree?

Therefore i will leave only the vege with them for the night, and since that's the only choice for them or starve, they will settle on for the vege.

I think, suggies have all their likes and dislikes, if yours do not like scramble eggs, you can try by just giving them the yoke and see what happens. Another method which has already been mentioned below is to mix the yoke with Gerber's applesauce or honey. Hopefully they will layan. Well, let me know what's the outcome.

This is the first time i heard this, using daun serai as a deterrent to flies, hmm..
If you are really really annoyed with this fly, then install mosquitoes netting to your entire house just like mine, of course that's just meant for joking..
You can use mosquito netting for your cage, but it won't be able to shield you from the very small flying insects. It can prevent the larger ones though.
Or you might want to bring them in with a carrier and let them eat in it. Place the carrier at a place that's safe from insects, maybe an enclosure with locked doors or window.
If possible don't leave the food there for too long.
I used to let my suggies eat in a small cage and membelai them while they eat as a way of bonding.

I believe your suggies will love mealworms, but i have come to know that its content of fat is high, so nowadays i am not so generous with mealworms but rather the crickets.

Well, nice effort, thanks for sharing the website, it's indeed helpful, let me know what's site is that if you will?
Have a nice weekend to all..
