Hey Gex, Thanks mate,

Yeh I tried the separate settup and the little **** escaped, :shock:I mean he jumped clear of the tub!:oops:

He stresses big time if you take him away from his mates for too long.

Otherwise I have no other settup atm as I leant my good enclosed 1 to a mate 3 months ago for 2 weeks.....................still waiting! :xGrrrr! Have asked for it back but they got nowhere yet for their lizard (Maybe I am just too generous).:?

Atm my only 'SAFE' option is monitored separate feeding and hills. He was so big and now he is so little this is why I am concerned with him.:(
 
Heaps bright today, has nice round tummy and took almost 1 ml this morning (I reakon he would have taken alot more if I had let him 8) ) He loves this stuff I hope it works for him!
 
If he wants to take more then give him more..... keep feeding until he decides he's had enough..... The more he eats the better he will be... U never know maybe try offering him some small crickets or even woodies.... if he takes them hold back on the hills for a bit and see what happens....
 
my little dude doesnt like it, barely swallows. have to force feed him :'( has been suggested to try mashed sweet pumpkin. will try that after getting soe from the shops this avo. any other suggestions?

Yeh I thought about it but am offering 'live food' as well so I thought 'well if your that hungry then maybe you'll chase down a few woodies' 1 can only hope at least anyways. I am trying not to soley feed him the hills as i dont want him to become dependant. ;)

Shoo I hope you can get your bloke to eat but maybe his mouth is still 2 sore? My new little beardie got mouth all bruised up when she was only a few weeks old and it took her a good month to get over it and start eating properly and hers was not even broken. Maybe very long road ahead but I wish you welll in his recovery.
 
ah okay, cheers, well either way its good knowledge to be gathering :)

he ate about 1ml this morning, i found that if i filled his mouth with the solution and ten put him down on his feet he stuck his head in the air and slowly swalled the mouthful, repeated that a few times. gave the rest to te other collection by adding it to their salad, spoilt much? :p
