Yay! Well done . Leadbeaters is very bad, I liken it to feeding your (if you have any which I don't) human kids a diet of doughnuts and full sugar cola! The diet on SGF I've used for almost a decade and have superb suggies .

These are the recipes we've been looking at Recipes already worked out for all you lovely people!

We are trying out the Papaya,Apple,Pear and cat biscuit one

Yup, those recipes are all good. If the ratios are a bit off, add a bit of calcium suppliment to it, just to up the calcium content But once you get the hang of it, you can make up your own mixes, too

Very, very nice gliders, I love them.

I hope to get a pair next year once I've done the research.
Does anyone know if this stuff is ok to feed http://www.medicanimal.com/product/~nectar-700g/~product_id=B7043
Also what calcium supplement is best for them and where do you get it
