Guys.. another question. How many times in a week can i feed my joeys with meal worms? and also the quantity?

for me i just feed my suggie every day but in small amout...i give 8-10 mealies coz my suggie still young at age...but for adult usually 10-15 is enough per day..but dun forget to sprinkle some calcium powder to the mealies b4 u serve coz mealies just have fat n protein oni...

Dont over sprinkle ya the calcium. Basically only one calcium-coated mealworm is enuf. If u r feeding them smoothie, slurp or HPW diet, then no need to add extra calcium. Coz all have enuf calcium d. Please double check with the makers ya.

yap~i'm new in here....i always getting informations from here but never get a chance to show my suggie
my suggie i just measure her...she got 81grams...fatty fatty

hehehe maybe angle problem...she confirm smaller than a kitten
i bought her more than 3 months...n tat time when i bought her the salesgirl told me she already 6 month old~~
she very tame~when i 1st carry her she didnt crabbing at me

hmm....gonna measure Gino to already,hehe...

welcome to our family sis

hehe thankx~
81grams is it heavy or overweight???

Go buy one Digital Scale la.

I m gona take one back to KL. Mom's giving. Tanita Brand KD-160. Max is 2kg. I wonder will my Humprey the fat hedgehog can be weight not.. hehe.

And from Hun n KP scale, from Cosway, which one is better? The bowl from Hun/KP is bigger than mine, mine more compact. Just an ON/Tare button and an OFF button. White colour.

no money lah.

diam2 bring Gino come to work and measure him hehe..

Kelvin,how long u had been in Penang?

u really have 2 try HPW lah.

mine also using tanita brand digital scale~

this Q have to leave for the seniors to answer especially Bonai's (Sayang)

i have to seperate Gino and Lucas at this moment because Gino always bully Lucas.Lucas always looks wet at head and body and damn smelly pees by Gino on Lucas

can they eat almonds? someone told me can but just checkin...

Almost 2 weeks d in Penang. Kakaka Maybe tomoro or day after going bk KL d lor. But 4th December coming bk pulak for my cousin's wedding.

I am worried bout my babies in UKM. Just worry la!

Ur 2 monsters like the HPW r? I still have a smoothie to be collect from Petshack, and i dowan to feed them both. So maybe finish the smoothie, then only HPW. Elmira is eating so much.

We can have a meet up, then maybe i can bring the digital scale for peeps to weigh their suggies. OK bo?

Which one? Mine is all white n the bowl just fits the scale = small. Maybe urs r like Cosway? Blue n silver colour. And bowl bigger. Me still debating which one better.

Joan, ur scale maximum can weight how many kilos? Urs r cosway wan?

81gm consider ok la, as long as the gliders still can jump here n there without much problems. If u noticed the suggie too fat, he cant glide safely coz of the weight pulling him down. Exoduskeira's babysit glider weighs 93gm. Hows dat?

sorry guys should this question be a repeated one.

do we need to bring our suggies for jabs like what we do to our dogs n cats??? the 1st n 2nd mthly jab, then the yearly jabs after that???

tq

Hi...long time didt post anything edi..
share with u my joey riding on his mommy..

waaaa..love this pic! cute leh!

how old is ur joey now?

i don't think anyone here has ever brought their suggies for jabs as suggies are kept mostly indoors & don't roam/walk on ground (tanah) so they don't need those jabs.

plus the smallest needle will still be too big for them & will hurt them alot.

just keep their cage & the areas around them clean & do try to give them bee pollen (found in HPW) as it increases their immune system.

hun once told me that a drop of cod liver oil in their food once a week will make their coat shinny & smooth.

nawh i think the weight is perfect.. ive read somewhere that for adults below 60++ is considered underweight.. the ideal weight shud be around 90-150 if im not mistaken.. i read it of alot of other sites.. look around im sure ppl state the ideal weight for male and female gliders.. tho males are supposed to be heavier and bigger than females.. hope my pointer helped ^.^

mine is whole white with plastic bowl...but maximum only until 1000g

sorry for double posting but this is from wiki pedia.The Sugar Glider is around 16 to 21 cm (6.3 to 7.5 inches) in length, with a tail almost as long as the body and almost as thick as a human thumb, and weighs between 90 and 150 grams (3 to 5.3 oz). im guessing our gliders shud be at that range..
