The kitten must eat. Try to get some sugar or honey water into him at first. Then try the formula.
What do you mean by popping? Do you mean pooping his bowels or passing gas?

Pooping, and yes gas and he has diarrhea, probably is because he was unable for so many hours
That pate will be fine!
For the sick kitten, put the powder from a probiotic capsule in his honey water or in his formula. It will hopefully help to settle his tummy.

Still almost not eating nothing... I'm trying to give him even though small amounts, but I think he is a fighter and I think he is going to survive. He's a little picky about his food
I put him together with his brothers to keep him warm
The brothers are really in good health now, i'm really happy with them of how they mannage to have so much energy

This is a photo of them all together
How are the others eating? How much from the syringe? Are they eating anything else yet?
No one is in good health if they are not eating.
The sick one must eat. When you tell me he is eating nothing, I am telling you that he will not live unless you get food into him. Can you even get honey water in him?
What happens when you try to feed him?

I tried formula and the honey water, but still it's almost nothing, he won't open his mouth, unless i force in... and i get some sips out of it, but he isn't getting it to his belly because of it, I'm still forcing it so i'm hopping he eats well... i'm preocupied about him..
The others are doing really great, they are eating and meowing really loud, i have one that he is a glutton and the other two are eating well too, i just need to force my way in, but they are taking the formula
Okay, you will have to force the sick one to eat. He should not choke, but he needs fluids. Give him time to swallow.
Can you get him to a vet?
It's good the others are eating well. You should give them pate as soon as you can.

He has still the diarrheas? The trick is, to mix honey, salt and water into a "pedialyte"
Say, 2 teaspoons honey, 1/4 teaspoon salt in a cup of water.
You can use minerale water containing different salts, or a so called minerale kitchen salt. But you can always begin with common kitchen slat.
This way, he gets boths salts and some nourishment. Glucose sugar in honey doesnt need to be digested, it goes straight into blood. And will keep him up, hopefully.
But you must get this into him! You must forcefeed. Use a needless syring or a dropper. Or even a straw. In the corner of the mouth, dropwise so he can swallow. Repeat.
When you and he learns the trick, it will go fairly easy. But in beginning its often frustrating.
You may give this "pedialyte even if doesnt has diarrhea. But is necessary if he has diarehea - OR is so weak he cant eat or digest no longer.
When he got some strengh, you proceed with other fluids with foods.
This soupy formula you gave the others - it seems work so.
A broth from chicken or pidgeon. Or someting else you manage to make. Mix it up and have it as a fluid. And forcefeed this way as mentioned above.
Keep him warm - actively warming up. The weak one are always freezing no?

Still don't know if he still has diarrhea or not, yesterday he's little belly was doing all kind of sounds.
I'm going to give him that honey water has you said the sugar goes straight to the blood so he can manage to get warmer.
The others are doing really great, at lunch today I'm going to make them tritorated chicken and give to them so they can ingest something that keep them full. The mix isn't enough they want another thing, I think.
The sick one has problems to warm up even if he's with his siblings he goes to corner and be alone
