So here is a previous thread that I had about feeding.

I have been taking the above approach and just waiting until he appears before i try to take him out to feed him. Days could go by and I won't see it. When he is up and active he want's nothing to do with being picked up. I have purchased some decent gloves that are leather padded. Today when I went to take him out of his home I used the technique that was linked in the taming the beast thread her on tegutalk. He didn't like it and bit my fingers several times. I have been bit only once before by him and then bought my gloves as repeated bites would not be a fun thing. Anyways, I did manage after a fashion to get him from his tank and into the feeding bin. It was not a nice process. Now he is in there but doesn't want to eat anything. i did get him to eat a cricket but but he does not seem interested in the others and I also provided raw turkey/scrambled egg mix that he usually eats and still no dice. What am I doing wrong? I want him to be happy and I want to be able to tame him but it doesn't seem like he wants anything to do with me. Also it's been 6 days since he last ate and he was eating good then. Still huffy and puffy though.
He is about 3 months old and i have only had him a few weeks
Any help would be ...helpful
