Trouble feeding

[lil_angel]

I'm still having trouble getting my lil leo to eat mealworms. its about 8-9wks old. its not showing any interest. ive tried leaving them in a bowl, and using tweezers. Not interested. leo just walks or sometimes runs away from them. I've called alot of diff pet stores and all they have are crickets and mealies.
Its eating crix but only 1 or 2 a day. if that.

i dont have a bank account right now so its hard to buy things only that require a credit card # lol

Does any1 know how i can get anything else, so that i can alternate w/ the crickets? Thanks so much~

Have you tried leaving some on the floor overnight instead of in a bowl? I do that with my hatchlings until they get the hang of eating. Most of them won't eat with me watching. I just know how many I put in there and re-count them in the morning.

ive tried that for several nights. lasnight i tried cutting 2 in half thinking maybe they were to big and they still moved but none were touched. idk what to do now besides crickets. i wish i had a credit card or something or i would be getting something online.
