What To Feed Pet Sugar Gliders

It is a sad fact that many sugar gliders that are kept as pets suffer from specific nutritional disorders because their owners are unaware of their pet’s nutritional needs and how to meet them appropriately on a daily basis.

In their natural habitat, they thrive by eating insects, nectar, and pollen. Unfortunately, it is difficult to replicate this diet for pet sugar gliders. In order to meet their needs, experts recommend that 75% of their ration consist of pellets and the rest is fresh fruits and vegetables which should be washed thoroughly and placed inside the sugar glider’s enclosure at night. Anything that is left in the morning should be removed and disposed of properly.
