    Best way to liquefy food on a one pinky basis??
    The animal in question will not accept ff pinkies. I have a good method of administering the food once its liquefied (small syrenge down the throat), I just need a good clean way of doing the actual liquefication of one or two pinkies at a time. I don't want to use a blender or garlic press or potato masher as these should stay in the kitchen and I think will cause more clean up than I want to deal with. I have looked at a pinky pump in person and think even with the various attachments its far to large for the small mouths I intend to feed. I have considered a slap chop as well but think the flesh may stick up in the blade.

    Id rather not talk about force feeding in this thread as its a tough decision enough for me to make but I have decided and thats that until the animal starts gaining lost weight and growing. If you feel the need to discuss it with me please pm me.

    I have one of these to mix up the pinkies when i have a non eating hatchling. Blend it up adding water. When done make sure its a consistency of milk shake. Then wash processor for later use.

    You can also not even bother with pinkies and use a meat ferret food, blend it with water in blender and make it into a shake consistency. Toss it all in ice tray, freeze it and then bag them up. Take out how many cubes you need, thaw and put in syringe and administer.
