Tegu wont eat...

[dragonqueen4]

He has MBD and is getting calcium shots everyday, he started to do great, got his appetite back then he got impacted. So I took him to the vet for an enema and the vet got him to pass it. Since then hes lethargic again and hasnt eaten in 4 days. Any ideas how to stimulate his appetite or should I try and force feed him? If so, how exactly do you do that?

Try giving him some active yogurt, it should jump start him.

Ok, thanks, I will try this tmw.

I gave him the yogurt, but he still hasnt eaten anything solid. if he doesnt eat soon, should i get him oxbow critical care or oxbow carnivore care?

I would go with the Carnivore Care. The Critical Care is much lower in fat and protein and the main ingredients are more suitable for rodents and such. The boost from the extra calories would probably do him some good.
