i've done this before...

get bits of meat and tweezer them into its mouth, if you kind of press the edges of its beak it should open then you can put the meat down. i've done this using biscuits or egg food for other birds and baby birds and it works. he should start eating on his own when he gets a taste for the food.

how was it about to be killed??

and as for names...carajas or rawk
