This is an interesting video of my mate Christoph Studer force-feeding one of this years Acanthophis hawkei (Death Adder) babies. Force-feeding is an invasive procedure and even experts can hurt the animal especially using solid foods so Christoph started using this liquid formula designed for recovering dogs and cats. It is the Convalescence Support Instant Diet Formula produced by Royal Canin. It works wonderful with baby snakes and keeps them healthy and growing until they start feeding voluntarily.
