[QUOTE="Jessss, post: 2008037, member: 109038"] Hi! Unfortunately I can’t help much with the actual problem but can offer some advice with foods that may help! :) My boy Bruce had stomach cancer (was too far gone to operate) he couldn’t eat solids and was loosing weight so I would give him slurries with a syringe which he would eat and it helped get the right nutrients in him and helped him hold some weight on. My other girl has very bad MBD which has made eating and swallowing food difficult for her so can’t eat any insects besides wax worms and meal worms.She lost a lot of weight after laying 2 clutches back to back so I wanted to fatten her up a bit. My two best products are Repashy beardie buffet and Arcadia omnigold.Both come powdered and are mixed with boiled water,my girl prefers the beardie buffet a lot over the omnigold and is fed beardie buffet 2-3 times a week.The omnigold turns into a paste sort of consistency and the beardie buffet is more of a jelly kind of consistency.Both could be watered down to make a slurry/smoothie texture which I find helps with swallowing.Personally I’ve had good results from both products but the beardie buffet is the fave it’s helped my girl put a lot of weight back on. Hope this helps! Also if you do offer it watered down offer it very slowly so he doesn’t aspirate it and with the jelly/paste consistency don’t allow him to eat it too quick as it can gather at the back of his throat where the tumour is.I really hope he’s feeling better soon,reminds me so much of my first boy Bruce ❤️ Not sure if you’ll be able to get these products where you’re located but if not there’s some great slurries you can make at home for him.
