lettuce generally doesnt hve much nutrition in it – except for romaine…
he is probably stressed.. they tend to bond with one person and should remain with that person for life…
You need to get him on a proper diet. This way you can be sure he is getting the calcium and protein he needs. We use a mixture called BML, but there are others as well. Along with this he needs fruit and veggies every night. Gliders do not eat dry food as a staple of their diet. We do use a hard food that is mainly for their teeth, not nutrition.
Mealworms are good for protien also, but should be given as a treat.
I don’t reccomend lettuce since it is mainly water and can give them runny poop. They should not have citrus often either, such as oranges or tomatos.
I think your giving it too much food. If you keep it up you might kill it! I’d stop giving it soooooooo much to eat.
