Calcium to phosphorus · target about 2 : 1

Dangerous: there is more phosphorus than calcium. Inverted ratios like this cause metabolic bone disease in gliders. Rebalance the mix and speak to an exotics vet.

1 mg calcium · 2 mg phosphorus

Reference values per 100 g. This is a guide for spotting bad imbalances, not a replacement for an established glider diet plan or an exotics vet.
