Since it did pass some sort of fecal material (which hopefully you saved for that fecal exam) it likely does not have an obstruction. So feeding it a small meal would probably be okay. Make sure it has adequate warmth to digest the meal. You can put the moist hide over the UTH. Give it another moist hide in a cool spot in the cage, so it has a choice. An infrared gun is most useful in scoping out the various temperatures in the habitat. Try to not handle it any more than absolutely necessary, to avoid stress.

Is this the same little cal king you had a feeding problem with in October of last year?
