Food: 30% BW clean meat c/u tiny (+ Vitahawk + Ca) Use camo and puppet
Prepped 30g
TF 14g @ 1:05pm - Pt ate eagerly
TF approx.~1/2 of remaining 16g (guessing ~8-10g) @ 4:20PM - unsure of exact amount. Food was dried and needed to be rehydrated - 16g weight was prior to food drying out - left remaining food in incubator slightly tilted on donut to hopefully help Pt to eat on its' own
Note: PM feeding - Pt took food readily from hemostats at start of feeding
Observations:
* Head tilt almost at complete 180 inversion - would somewhat straighten head when grabbing food but still had significant tilt even while eating
