Sugar Glider Diet Recipes
Main Course
There are several approved sugar glider diets to choose
from. These are to be fed as the main course for a
complete diet.
Click the links below for the recipes to most widely
accepted sugar glider diets:
 HPW – High Protein Wombaroo – This is
what we feed our gliders and they love it! Not only
that, but it is the easiest to make and one batch lasts
about 2 ½ months for two gliders. The up-front expense
is a little high (ordering the Wombaroo powder and bee
pollen) but it lasts several batches, so overall it is a
really cheap diet to make. We are planning to stick with
this diet and have even created the SSG Complete
HPW Diet, which uses the HPW Diet and expands
to show which fruits and vegetables work well with
it. - Judie’s BML – This is Judie
Hausmann’s version of Bourbon’s Modified Leadbeater’s
diet. She has modified it to make it taste less bitter.
She and many other glider owners have had great success
with this diet. We fed it to our gliders for a while
before switching to HPW. Our gliders really liked it,
but we felt the HPW would more closely mimic their sugar
glider diet in the wild and was much easier to make (due
to the fewer # of ingredients).
-
Original BML – Bourbon’s Modified Leadbeater’s – We
have not personally tried this diet with our gliders, but
it is widely approved. The difference from this and
Judie's BML is
the type of juice and the amount of the Herpivite
vitamin supplement.
- Priscilla
Price’s Diet (aka Sugar Glider Exotic
Diet) – We have not personally used this diet, but
many breeders are using it and Priscilla has been breeding
gliders for years. She has successfully used this diet with
over 1,000 gliders.
- Suncoast Diet –
We have not personally tried this diet, but Suncoast is
having great success with it and is a large and reputable
breeder.
- Leadbeater's
Formula - This diet was developed by the Taronga Zoo as
part of an extensive feeding schedule for their sugar
gliders. We have not personally tried this diet
but it is our understanding that it was meant to only
be fed as part of the diet. This diet may be the most
difficult to replicate as a pet owner. This is why
you see modified versions of Leadbeater's such as BML and
Judie's BML.
Fruits & Veggies
These recipes can be used in place of the fresh or frozen
fruit & vegetable portion of the diet.
