A tube feeding syringe holder having a continuously flexible, shape-holding arm supporting a drop-in syringe receiver at its terminal end. The syringe receiver is a generally circular, non-expanding collar with a bore sized to permit a syringe to be dropped into place axially, in a one-handed operation. The apparatus allows the feeding operation to be hands-free once started. In a preferred form the flexible arm is mounted on a tripod base with a vertically adjustable support post.
