And i am not familiar with forcefeeding myself
I would put up a seperate thread to try and get more advice in that serious a case.

The main things people will want to know are all the husbandry details including temps, humidity and descriptions of the enclosure - pics if possible.

Then a description of what you are using to measure the temps and humidity (sounds daft but some of the kit out there for sale is simply junk ).

The next set of info would be how you prepare and offer the food to see if anyone has any suggestions.

If you list all the different things you have tried it might speed things up by avoiding suggesting things you have already tried.

Have you talked to the place you got him to get a blow by blow description of the feedings in the past?

Do you have a good reptile vet near you? - we might be able to help you find one if it is needed.
