He took his first meal fine but his didnt take his 2nd or 3rd. Then i assisted feeding him. You can youtube this, but all it is that you place half of the head in the mouth and causes them to start eating their meal. After that 1 time he ate normal. I never did this for her, but it may be something you want to try as babies can get pickier then adullts. its okay if an adult misses a feeding but babies need a meal in them. Assist feeding is not force feeding. Let me know how this goes. If you still have the hopper you can try assist feeding with that
No offense but can you not read? In your post you stated that he told you to force feed when he clearly suggested assist feeding which is NOT force feeding.

I don't think you need to resort to assist feeding yet. You have not tried "everything". If the snake has eaten on its own, it can eat on its own again. Sometimes they need a little push but that should be your last option as it does cause a considerable amount of stress.
