    Oops, I called Garrick Derrick. My apologies.

    a pup can't feed/drink on it's own. It can only nurse from mom. Sorry, you'll need to put the little guy out of his misery. I'd snap is neck. This is is the unpleasant side of reptile keeping.

    after the he deed is done, put him in the freezer if that's allowable in your home. You can then try ft next time.
