Java doesn't seem to be improving too much. He's still getting fed baby food (turkey, chicken and sweet potato, and mixed veggie) daily, mixed in with a bit of calcium powder. He has to be force-fed and doesn't take the food on his own, though he swallows with no problems. He's also given water in the same way. His poos have been mostly liquid and urate, though this may be normal as he's being fed liquid-y food. After eating he has an extra heating bulb turned on for a bit to help him digest. We are also giving him a
bath every few days. He seems particularly lethargic in the morning when we wake him up.
I just don't know what do to. Part of me wants to take him to the vet...again...but a big part of me doesn't, because I don't want him to die alone in an incubator miles away from his family who loves him deeply. I don't know how much he's going to improve, but I'm okay feeding him by hand daily if I have to.
When we got Java two years ago he was the tiny beardie nobody at the store wanted and he became such a sweetheart and a cuddle bug. I'm in love with the little guy and I don't want to say goodbye yet...
