I think I posted a message in the wrong spot! LOL!

I take in reptiles and rehab them. Last Friday, a mexican Spiny Tail came to me shelter covered in oil and tar, thin, and dehydrated. He had been wandering around in an apartment complex. So I have been cleaning him, and trying to get him to eat, assuming that he should be eating greens. Now I read that he is omnivorous, but should I still be pushing greens? All I have been able to get him to eat after I syringe fed critical care is silk worms. Are they more insectivorous at his age, ie youngish I am assuming? I have him under a Megaray in a large bird cage covered halfway around by a sheet. Here is a pic taken after the third de oil bath




What kind of ig is he? is he still young or full grown???? I have a great home for him, but need to get him eating.
