vet checked him out today. told the obvious. broken spine... good news is as of right now no signs of nerve damage. he told me feed him, he passes the food hell likely live. if he regurgitates, stops being so active, forms twitches or spasms in the backside of his body, or just stops voulenarily moving it,has to drag his back side, to put him down. the other note, injury was older than i was told. and not caused by a bowl. he said it looked like he was shut in something. and it was not done 3 days ago. he also said if he does pass the food, try to keep te body from curving. hell never be perfect, but itll a lot. so i fed him, and he had no problem attacking the hopper. couldnt constrict it like he wanted, but he ate it. got it into the area that was crushed. should be around his stomach though i guess. well know in the morning.
