I have 2 WC that eat sporadically. I got them in january of this year and they have both eaten 5-6 times. I am going to switch them both to cypress and see if that convinces them to eat. One came in with ticks, a quick look over with tweezers and the usual PAM treatment and she was good to go. Both were over 1200 g when I got them and you can't beat that $40 price tag. I tried to breed one with my pastel male this year just to see if I could have any luck, but no such luck.
