i too rescued a very sick sav whos previous keeper thought it should eat doritos and chicken from kfc and wonderd why it wasent eating. i brought him home put in a warm tub of water to soak and he started drinking immediately so as a recomendation from previous experience keep him warm because they fight toxens in there body with heat. soak him like twice a day for ten to fifteen min keep with the antibotics and when he seems to liven up try feeding a small feeder mouse or even a hopper so he dosent have to exert to much energy and like the others said do stop force feeding they go for good periods of time without eating and his tail looks sorta healthy so he has a fat reserve good luck hope this helps
