I tried to google this online many times and nothing came up so I'm coming to you guys for some help here.

I read online that your glider can actually just casually have a stroke and die from overeating sugar.

But lately my little man has been eating SOO much. He isn't even a year old yet, I haven't changed his diet at all since I've gotten him, an apple slice a day, an apple slice and glier-r-chow at night.

This morning I caught him trying to swat at the pan under his cage for scraps of food almost as if I never feed him and hes trying to eat whayever he can.... so I gave him his morning apple slice
He seriously ate that entire slice of apple in like 5 minutes I just watched it happen!!!! Which is supposed to be his food for the entire day!

I'm not sure if I should be feeding him more, because I'm scared I'll overfill him with sugar and that he might just straight up DIE one day :') I'm relatively new to this whole glider thing since I've only had him for less than a year.

Anybody have advice?

My gliders love Critterlove complete. They also get salad but I sometimes replace that with fresh fruit or veggies. Sometimes they get boiled chicken or freeze dried chicken necks. They love fresh okra. Have a friend who grows it. She gives me some in exchange for letting her older kids come over for tent time with the gliders. I would definitely get some of Peggy’s mixture. I noticed a big improvement in energy when I started feeding it.

I also would not worry about glider scraping cage bottom. Mine do that even when not hungry. Sometimes mine are just playing. Watched them pull discarded food husks up and then throw them onto the floor. Fun for all! Especially me, the one who gets to vacuum.

I give him glider gravy every other day for the past couple of weeks, normally i give it to him every night but I just moved and have different ice trays that wound up being too big for just one glider to eat. I guess I will start making them smaller and giving them to him every night again and adding more stuff to his diet! Thank you!!
