    For a bit of a problem child like you have, I'd personally just make a new setup of 15qt sterilite tub, clutter it with leaves, and place 2 tiny hides in it (tiny enough for him to feel squished up inside).

    Many baby bp's may be fine going in in a large terrarium with lots of clutter, but some are particularly defensive or particularly fearful. Maybe they consider certain locations in the enclosure potentially dangerous, or too risky, and we do not see why. So the small tub setup is the most sure-fire way. It's a "remove all other factors", if you will. And then you can focus on just the feeding.

    Also note to just not handle at all until he starts eating consistently.
