SSG Complete HPW Diet - Feeding Routine Made Easy!

The SSG Complete HPW Diet makes feeding your sugar gliders a healthy diet much easier. Feeding your sugar gliders can seem extremely complicated when you first start doing your research.  We do encourage you to look over the sugar glider diet basics.  However, for those who want to feed them something healthy, but do not want to get into over analyzing the diet routine and just want a straight forward answer to "what should I feed my sugar gliders?", we thought we would spell out exactly what we do to feed our sugar gliders.  We are calling this the Sweet Sugar Gliders Complete HPW Diet (SSG Complete HPW Diet).  We are just taking the HPW Diet and further defining it.  We are not altering the original HPW Diet in any way.  The HPW, fruit, and veggie portion yields 1.5-2:1 calcium:phosphorous ratio (depending on which SSG Fruit Smoothie and SSG Veggie Relish recipe you choose).  If you believe our math to be incorrect, please contact us to let us know.

Our Nightly Feeding Routine for Two Sugar Gliders

This is what we give our gliders every night.  We thaw the fruit & veggies in the microwave, then mix the HPW into it.  If you feed a few hours before they wake up, you do not have to thaw.  Also, it is ok to put the HPW, fruits, & veggies into separate dishes if your gliders prefer it that way.  We mix all of ours together and our gliders eat it very well.

  • 1 TBSP HPW mixture (made ahead of time)
  • 2 "ice cubes" of SSG Fruit Smoothie (made ahead of time) 
  • 2 "ice cubes" of SSG Veggie Relish (made ahead of time) 
  • Gliderade 1-2 times/week (we mix 1 tsp Gliderade with 5 tsp water for 2 gliders and serve it in a water silo)
  • Treats: mealies, crickets, boiled chicken, hard-boiled egg (shell on), dried papaya, yogurt drops (treats can be fed in the morning - do not overfeed) 
  • Premium Sugar Glider Diet (optional, in case the sugar gliders get hungry during the day)
