Jus what SCC and loritanah mentioned, baby food and fruits is not balanced diet for glider.

Heinz baby food are meant for human baby.. not for glider.. u can feed as treats but not daily diet.

Now we have another choice for pelleted base glider food in the market~ Bugsy Happy Glider~

It seem like most of the glider loves it~~

However, as a reminder, we encourage people to use pelleted food as extra supplemental food, but not staple diet ya.

1) gliderade - twice a week
2) booster -daily
3) acacia gum - feed occassionaly, u can sprinkle on the fruits, or put on chewing stick
4) glider-cal - if u are feeding hpw, u don need but make sure u feed high calcium fruits/vege.

Basic i will recommend u go for HPW+ Vege+Fruits , and Gliderade twice a week for carbohydrate source.

Supplements is not specially made for underaged glider only... Even a fully weaned glider need supplement as well, to maintain their overall health.

thanks eric.
one last quest. i read on some forum they say some vege need to be cooked. i thought we're feeding sg fresh vege n fruits
may i know is there any vege which i need to be careful or cook before feeding them?
*
I don really 'cook' the vege.. because after cooked vege actually doesnt contain much nutrition..

For those hardy vege such as sweet potato or carrot..i jus throw into hard boiled water..then take it out after few seconds... biggrin.gif
