can you see any actual damage? If it is adult it must have been recent or it would have starved by now. Depending on your committment to it my suggestions would be to first make absolutely sure that it is blind. keep it for awhile and if it doesn't improve and it definitely isn't eating than you can either



1. put it in your freezer to humanely kill it OR



2. hand feed it. Since you can catch it easily enough you could hand feed it crix, waxworms, mealies, etc. Pry open it mouth (carefully so as not to cut it or it may get unfected) with your fingernail, a stiff pice of paper (index card or something) and put the cirx in. The reaction will be to eat.



I personally would probably opt for #2 but that's just me. I certainly wouldn't judge you if you chose #1! However, if you just let it go it is sure to die -either starvation or as food for another critter



keep us posted!
