another thing. for feeding..if he doesnt want then dont bother him to much for it. just try again in a day or two. let him get hungry and maybe he'll take it. also im sure his mouth is in pain or discomfort so that might be another reason why. i have to drive about 35 min. to my reptile vet but i do it anyway if i need meds. and somehow i come up with the money even if borrowed. keep soaking him with water as it will keep him hydrated and it is also relaxing. when was the last time he defecated? was he fed since? keep a water bowl in the cage in case he gets thirsty and wants to drink on his own. give him soemthing to hide under or burrow for security...it will help with stress. im not sure about the newspaper. can you but cheap paper towel? maybe the dollar store? well keep us informed.
