Sugar gliders can eat a wide variety of meats but, it also makes them stinkier. I don't feed mine meat and they do just fine. Citrus fruits should not be fed to Gliders until they are no longer considered Joeys (7 months and older) Citrus and highly acidic foods should always be fed in moderation.Sugar gliders also need a pelleted diet along with daily fruits and vegetables.
