if you want to you can put slightly less water in it and see how that does for you. you can put some on their noses and let them lick it off it you want--it is a good way to get them used to you. if the breeder you got them from says that they eat the cgd then most likely you should have no problems getting them to eat it for you, sometimes you just can't tell if they are eating it or not because they don't eat very much of it, especially when they are young.
