My baby racer wouldnt eat so I had to force feed. I have had her a month. I took a bussiness card and opened her mouth then I took a pinkie leg and placed it at the back of her throat. She proceded to swallow it fine. My tip is ALWAYS FEED SMALLER FOOD ITEMS WHEN FORCE FEEDING.
Hope it helps
David
P.S. i am sooo relieved my racer ate
