he's shown interest. he was on f/t at the pet store and he has eaten it when we've given it to him, he tried yesterday but dropped it and didn't know what to do. also, we still have repti-bark in there and he got it caught in his mouth last week and i had to remove it. he ate fine that day, after it was removed. still, i don't want him eating it off the substrate until i get something better. i left it on top of one of his hides for a couple hours but he didn't do anything.

right now he is coiled around the little climbing branch in his enclosure, smelling the screen top, looks like he's trying to get out (banging against it)
