Please Help Save This Puffer!
There is a guy in the Chicago area that has a large S&S puffer with lockjaw. The owner has had it for 7 years & the puffer is very personable. It needs daily force-feeding. Can anyone take it? Otherwise, he's gonna have to euthanize it, rather than see it starve to death.

Oh that's terrible! I wish I could help out but there's no way I could get a tank large enough or have somewhere to stick him during the move. 
I hope someone in the area is able to help.

Jen,
Any history you can share on this puffer?
What and how are they force feeding?
How do they teeth look?

He is not force-feeding--says he doesn't have the time. I'll ask about the teeth.
