Default How many raisins?

I often give my Syrian a raisin when I put her back in her cage after play time. Just one raisin. My bf expressed some doubts about the high sugar content of raisins and thought I was giving them to her too often. Is one raisin a day too much? I don't give them every day but if I did, would it be bad?

to be honest i wouldn't give them every day. They should be treat just like fruit and your bf is right about sugar content.
I would say a few times a week

LOL! Right, more for me

I buy them in 2 kg bags and I buy 2 bags at a time so I've certainly got enough to go around, for my cooking and their treats!
