The Exotic Nutrition Instant-HPW Insect & Fruit is a powdered honey-protein-water (HPW) diet for sugar gliders built on insect protein rather than dairy.
Key Features
- Insect-based protein with honey added
- A useful option if your glider does not take to the whey-based recipes
- Formulated with input from a PhD in animal nutrition, per Exotic Nutrition
- Yucca extract, which helps with cage odour
- Serve fresh or freeze in individual portions
- Produced in a USDA-registered facility
- 1 lb (454 g)
- Made in the USA by Exotic Nutrition
How To Mix
- Mix one part powder with 1.5 parts water and blend until smooth
- Keep mixed food in the fridge for up to 7 days, or freeze it
Feeding
- About 2 tablespoons of mixed HPW per glider daily if fed as the main wet diet
- If you also feed a dry pellet such as Glider Complete, 1 tablespoon of each per glider
Good To Know
- Take mixed food out of the cage after 12 hours
- Keep the powder sealed and cool; refrigerate or freeze for long storage
- Introduce any new food gradually, alongside the diet your pet already eats
- Always leave fresh, clean drinking water available
- Small exotics hide illness well. Weight loss, a change in droppings or refusing food warrants an exotics vet, not a change of treat
