I posted a while back saying my panther wouldnt open his eyes. Well he has been getting better and drinking way better, but still not quite as good as i would like, and only when i spray directly onto his mouth (luckily I have enough time to do this several times a day) but he still hadnt eaten in a month. So i decided to open his mouth and put food in. (I used suplimented silk worms to try to get a good meal in). So my first question would be is it ok to open his mouth and do that? once i put the worms in he ate them with no problem. I have done this 2 times but the 1st time he has a big defecation right afterwards. I know that defecation is a good sign but is there any way he could have just ran the worms strait through his system? It was within 2 minutes of eating. sorry for the long post my cham just really seems to be making an amazing comeback and I wanted to make sure he keeps getting better.
