Oh heavens hun I'm so sorry I wasn't specific! I know how intricate the diets are. I'm currently using the BML but considering slowly switching to HPW as I hear it's better? DEFINITELY plenty of fresh veggies and fruits, meal worms, all the good things. No worries, I was ONLY considering the gummies as a RARE occasional treat but wanted to be sure even one wouldn't cause any harm first! To be honest I figured if they ARE okay and he tries and likes tiny cut up bits it might help the bonding if he takes them from my hand like he licks off tiny bits of organic pure apple sauce from one finger while I pet him with the rest of my hand very slowly. Thanks everyone for the input! I'll be very careful and might forget the idea all together if there's any worries; just a thought I figured other people might wonder too! Thanks again!

You can use yoggies or white chocolate baking chips (which actually have NO chocolate in them at all) for bonding treats. You can also use mini marshmallows for occasional treats
Those gummies also tend to get stuck in the teeth, and I'm not sure how good gliders would be at dislodging them

As I mentioned these white baking chips can be used in place of the yoggies. You can find them in your grocery or discount store baking department. You need not buy the most expensive as in the link I gave. They do NOT contain any chocolate, thus making the safe for gliders

I was told at the SGGA, that I should cut the mini marshmallows in half, and lick the powder coating off, and they will eat them, then. Mine never touched them until I did this. I guess they must not have liked the powder. Treats are always to be given occasionally, tho. Their tummies are so small. Pine nuts are good for them, also. And mine do get a mealworm every morning from Larry
