Sweet, I had to assist feed my Fire male the first time, he went 2+months without eating before I got him, I assist fed one time and he has blossomed into a 500 gram boy in 8 months, hopefully your takes right off like mine did :)

yeah i can only hope!

have you tryed putting it in a cup with a lid and a rat pup in it, ive also done it with a lunch bag, but if you must force i also would do the assist way.
