you could trick him if you have to just to get the feeding process started. Let's assume for a second he would go for banana or applesauce (i know it's bad but go with me on this), you could put a little on your finger and when he goes to bite it you could sneak in some dandelion or grocery greens instead. Now if he won't take the bait then forget what I just mentioned. Or maybe you could do this trick with the crabgrass as bait.



And like others have mentioned, keep him well hydrated by soaking in warm water if you have to and get that boy some heat!
