I also made him bleed once from opening his mouth which scared me. I feel like it gave him too much stress. If I were to give him more baytril, would it be alright to cover his pinky in it?

I know, it's not easy. You can try watering it down so it will go through a needle, then inject into a pinky. But if he won't eat it..

Maybe I'm not the right guy to ask because to me it sounds like you should save yourself the trouble and say goodbye.

And BTW, the 0.4 mL was for a very large garter around 4 feet.. dose for a garter is usually much smaller.
