not eating - calcium?

[ephemerata]

I've given several snakes antibiotic injections, and it's kind of less stressful than forcing their mouth open to slide a tube down their throat
if you have to administer oral antibiotics, you should ask whether you can mix it in with some kind of carnivore care recovery formula and just tube feed him the food while you're at it

some of my difficult eaters were won over by the frozen SF Bay Brand silversides from the petshop, and those are whole fish
that's good news

thanks rhea
vet just called and culture is fine, there is no reason why sugar is not eating & no need for antibiotics... so i'll keep at trying to feed him & gather a poop- will try a few varieties of fish like the one you say and maybe guppies, so hard though with their beautiful swooshing rainbow tails like aqueous peacocks

they said they could forcefeed him in 2 weeks if he still did not eat, any opinions on this?
