Ooooook, lets have a look
Everyday (evening): fruits (and veggies: less quantity than fruit) and insects (
http://www.amiciinsoliti.it/cibovivo/Resized/camola5.jpg - sorry, can't find a proper translation in English!, moths, crickets, grasshoppers, locusts, etc.). When you don't have insects you can substitute them with boiled eggs or griddled chicken .
I do a 50/50 split of fruits and veggies, I used to feed more fruits but you need to remember that fruits contain a lot of sugar. Veg has a lot of different minerals and less sugar. Lots of people use live food, I prefer not to as it's not particularly nutritious, it's a personal choice though. I wouldn't feed what's in the link, it looks like it has nuts in it? Nuts are ok as a treat.
Every other day: fruit juice (no sugar, no citrus fruit, ok pineapple or tropical-ACE-more than a fru juice).
Not necessary, fruit sugars and acids, if they get fresh water 24/7 they won't need fruit juice
I never give baby food - not the mush stuff nor the cereal, no need.
Integrators: Reptimineral, cuttlefish bone ("dusted" on the food), Rep-cal, Arabic gum, wheat germ
A mammal multivitamin is better than a reptile vitamin, the amount of calcium in some of them is way too high, D3 is usually high in reptile vitamins. Cut out the cuttlefish - you already include a calcium supplement!! Arabic gum AKA acacia gum - good!!! Very good in fact, it's a complex carbohydrate. Wheat germ - never fed it myself.
Veggies: celery, carrot, some types of salade (UH?), fennel, potatoes (UH-UH??) and green beans (cooked)
Snap peas, green beans, butternut squash, sweet potato, carrot.
Fruits: mango, papaya, pear (just a tiny peace), apple, red apple, bananas, figs, melon, pineapple, orange (not often...O my God..), strawberries, kiwi, pomegranate (not often), mandarin.
Don't feed things like orange, mandarin or pineapple too often, banana's I never feed, none of mine like them. They're high in phosphorus, potassium and zinc too.
I'm still a profane, but...
aren't there too many integrators?
Bread and orange and mandarin
? UUHHH? Never read something good about this food!
Salade?
Too much calcium definately, they need a multivitamin, mine get calcium 2-3 times a week, acacia gum is good though.
As you can read, CAT food is not even mentioned...
The most "scientific" owners use BML.
Cat food is not popular in America, they prefer high sugar diets like bml, we don't agree in the UK (well, most of us anyway), sugar is bad for teeth, gums, weight, blood sugar levels. Just because they're called Sugar Gliders doesn't mean that's all they should eat! lol
Please, tell me if my observations are right: that means that I'm learning
Thank you very much for your attention!
Your observations are correct, the diet you have translated isn't particulalry good!! Don't worry though, we'll help you
:bow:
