Injured Petsmart BP

[Bogertophis]

I brought up maybe force feeding him a pinkie just to get something in his stomach, but no one was really up to try other than me. If it comes down tk him not eating when they try again tomorrow (he probably wont, since they try to soak him twice a day), ill see if i can convince someone to let me try to get some food in him. If i do, ill update about it, and make sure no one touches him for a few days.

I'm personally not a fan of force-feeding solid food...you can get a much better quality & quantity of food into a weak snake by tube-feeding...have you ever done that?
If you need tips on 'how-to' just holler...and you're right, since he has multiple issues it's HIGHLY unlikely that he'll eat after being handled & soaked b.i.d. (twice/day).

Hint: this is what you use to "tube-feed"- it's a very flexible round-tipped human medical-grade urethral catheter...the holes are NEAR the tip but not right at the
end, so it's gentle to tissues when inserted into a snake's throat.
