these sugar gliders are nocturnal marsupials needing to be fed once in the evening and once in the morning.
Typically the evening (around 6-8PM) involves:
cleaning food containers and treat + water bowls
1. refreshing water bowl
2. adding mixed water, honey, HPW powder and tofu to a refrigerated portion for the food container
3. chopping up tomato, pear, and grapes for the fruit bowl
4. adding mixed avocado + water to treat bowl #1
5. adding "bugs'n berries" and canned cooked millworms to treat bowl #2
6. mixing HPW * EmerAid + honey + water in small container for morning feeding and placing in fridge
Trypcally the morning (around 6-8AM) involves:
hand feeding with syringe filed w/item 6 above to male suggie w/oral deformity issue (about 2ml)
might be for one cycle only - occasionally, or may be for several days if I'm hospitalized (or pass on until my son from OK arrives to take charge)
FYI: I'm 71 with MS, lung surgeries on each lung, and a metastasized stage 4 cancer surgery/chemo survivor
Need someone who can start with short notice if emergency (ie going to hospital), but normally able to give several days notice if non emergency (ie going out of town) - price is negotiable ($35 entered above just to satisfy this form) as I don't know the usual fee...
