You can feed it the normal diet of leafy greens/spring mix/bok choy, etc. You can add some thawed frozed veggie mix of peas, green beans, carrots, lima beans, and corn to the greens a few times a week. Make sure you dust it with a good calcium supplement with D3 like Miner-All.
A couple king meal worms every few days will also help fatten it up. You can look at Deerfern farms's website for a good list of foods that will work for chucks.

You should also be looking for signs of other problems. If you found a wild chuck that skinny, it may have other problems that are causing it to refuse food/or rapidly loose weight. A trip to the vet may not be a bad idea, if you know of one who is good with reptiles.
