    Okay, I've dabbed a little on their nose, baby food that is, and they licked it and licked if off my fingers, but they still don't seem to be eating it. Also, tonight I tried crickets and they don't seem to be touching those either. I'm starting to get a little worried, three days and no eating. Anybody else ever had this problem?

    I started by feeding my Willow as much as he would eat off of my finger just to make sure he was eating. Then I would only give him a little off of my finger and put the dish next to him to finish at his will. Then I started moving the dish to where I wanted it to be and he now eats from it.

    Keep in mind that their tummies are tiny and it doesn't take much to fill them up. They may be having a few licks from it later on without your being able to detect it. If you keep the dish in the same spot and put them next to it to feed from your finger, that may help them learn to know where to go for food.
