Not Chewing

So i gave ester hius neocal just a minute ago and i figured while i had his mouth open i would just give him a superworm. Well i stuck it in his outh and put him back in the cage. He spit it out as soon as i sat him on his branch....... That cant be good right?

If Ester is capable of eating on his own, you should just let him do that.

I can't say why he spit it out, but he might have just been freaked out by the combination of a food item being suddenly in his mouth, getting meds, and you having your hands in his space.

Try hanging a super on the cage and walk out of the room for 10-15. If he takes it, he probably was just nervous.

what do u mean by hanging it on the cage?? Like with string...... or a bread twist?

He hasnt been eating thats why i tried to give him the super....I just dont want him to get sick......BLAH!!!
