I personally would just treat the animal and allow her/him to recover fully with the antibiotics before i tried to feed the animal.. It doesnt look like it is underweight in the pictures so i wouldnt risk the added stress of feeding the animal.. its alot ofwork for these animals to digest food and uses alot of energy which could/should be going towards healing from the infection. I wouldnt risk feeding until all the treatment was done...IMHO

Sincerley,
Rose HIpskind

PS... The pictures look like the animal is healing wonderfully
