I have a question about the oatmeal in the diet. It is not cooked, right? I thought uncooked oatmeal was a hazard for gliders having an intestinal blockage. Maybe when they are mixed into the smoothie they absorb enough moisture to make it like cooking it, but that was just a concern I had.

I know you should never give more than one or two flakes a day of dry uncooked oatmeal because it can swell up in the intestine and cause a blockage. So anyone have any insight on this relative to P's diet?

I believe the oatmeal swells when it is mixed into the recipe (comes in contact with liquid/moisture). Therefore, that should not be an issue when eaten because the oatmeal should not be able to swell anymore.


Edit to add: Can't they get loose bowels if they eat too much apple/applesauce/applejuice? The diet contains a lot of applesauce which may balance out the issue with intestinal blockages. dunno My gliders never had problems with constipation while they were on this diet.

I made a batch the other day and the oatmeal most definately did absorb the liquid of the applesauce. In addition, my boy is eating this stuff up like crazy. Usually in the morning when I left for work on the other diets I tried I had to take the old out and put some more in (I leave at 5 am)so he would have fresh for the rest of the time he was up because he wouldn't touch 1/2 of it until about his bed time and even then he was eating less than I would have liked (and yes, I do keep in mind his stomach size). If I didn't replace the stuff w/ fresh he just wouldn't finish it. However, with this stuff his plate is clean before I leave to work - except of course for the little moons, so I am going to up his amount a little more until I have a tad left over in the morning. Tonight he came flying to the front of his cage when he saw me with the food dish and dug right in which is also something he has never done before - not even for mealies or crickets. thumb

As the the fruits. There is 1 1/2 cups added to each portion. So I smoothie 3/4 of veggies and 3/4 of fruits for each portion then add it in. You are essentially using 3 cups of fruits and veggies per batch.


Earlier in his thread Billy gave s this info which is different than what was just said so now we are totally confused.......also on PP's page it says to add 3/4 cup of f/v to each portion......HELP!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry about the confusion but here is what P herself has told me. I have seen the new diets and for the amount that I make its the amount written below. Which is the recipe that is on the site.


You are adding 3/4 cup of fruits and 3/4 cup of veggies per portion equaing 1 1/2 cups. Since you are making two portions per batch you have 3 cups all together.

Now I at the beggining thought it was only 3/4 cup of both but I clarified it with P and it 3/4 cup of both per portion.

Like I said up above somewhere....she has changed how things are portioned out. It use to be divided into 3 portions (chicken, eggs, plain) instead of two (chicken, eggs). What happened with the plain portion that was suppose to be fed with mealies and yogurt? Are the chicken and egg portions considered the "basic mix"?

Quote:
Break off a frozen piece of the basic mix.


Feeding schedule should be:

Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday: Basic Mix

Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday: Basic Mix Plus Mealworms (about 20 per glider)


If they are the basic mix, then they are getting chicken or eggs PLUS 20 mealworms.

Yea the chicken and egg mixes are now considered the basic mixes. The yogurt is already in the mix. Yes its 20 mealies per glider on those days specified or 10 per glider everyday.

Agilitygliders - I don't know if P changed it or something since you last e-mailed her about it, but when I asked her 2 days ago she said it was not 3/4 C of fruits AND 3/4 C of veggies but rather 3/4 of a cup for BOTH if you follow the diet laid out on her website. However she said she prefers her new sheets and she sent me 2 different care & diet sheets.

Well maybe she has. I have been using the diet going on almost 2 years. But I talk to her almost every week and she has not mentioned anything to me about it.

Plus its best that I stay at that amount anyways since I am making the fruits and veggies into a smoothie. It pretty much equals to the amount 3/4 once you smoothie it.

Just got an email back from P and she said that my amount of fruits and veggies is just fine. I did get the revisions and I am checking them out with her so that I understand them completely, before I make any fine tuning.

That's why I'm confused about the recipe. The diet sheets P sent me (and I sent to everyone who asked) kinda add to the confusion, for me anyway.

I think I may e-mail her to see if I can clear things up for myself.

Still waiting for her email but if you look at the second diet sheet, the one that says final it about the same as the one on the site, just in larger quantities which to me are about the same since its in the same amounts that I use.

Now when you look at the first one now that one is very confusing. Same basic mix but a lot of extra stuff. I think to keep all confusion down a tad the one that she is showing off the most should be used. Its basic and easiest to understand. Check the one on the website and go by that for now. There is hardly any difference between the two diets. The final one or the website on. Just different measurements.

Hope this helps.

Hey! I e-mailed P, and she sent me updated diet sheets as of Jan 1st of this year. (Cosmo also sent them to me before P did) The other ones I sent everybody were from Nov 2005. I have forwarded it to everybody I originally forwarded it to. If you didn't get it, let me know!

wow that is a lot of mealworms for a glider. Being they are so high in fat wouldn't that be a bad thing?

The mealworms are for protien. Being that the mix itself is not high in fat at all compared to the other diets its completely safe and they will not become overweight from eating all the mealies. Also since the diet does not cause the gliders to become obese the gliders have a lot more energy are are more apt at actually excercising their little furrbutts! LOL. They always run on thier Stealths and keep healthy.

It a very good thing. Gliders love their mealies and now P has on the diet to give 10 mealies per glider per day which is what she told me to do about a year ago. So that will stay the same on my diet plan.

I will send it to both of you when I get off work. For some reason my work computer won't let me send it with those attachments. If you need it now, someone who I've already sent it to may be able to forward it on.
