He so readily took two hoppers when I first got him, but then I think he started going into shed. I still think housing him in a smaller tub is more secure for him, plus its what he's used to... he's just so tiny.
    Haha it's okay, it happens I'd give him a few more tries before assist feeding. Have you tried cluttering up his tub with crumpled paper and adding an excess of hides? Over 2-3 weeks indicates (to me, at least) that it's more than just a shed. Mine only refuse when they're deep in shed, if even then.

    I haven't but thats a really good idea! Plus it might add some nice texture for him to move around on... I can definitely see signs of he'd but its not that obvious unless you're inspecting him like me lol.
