So i want to begin the taming process with kush. But i want to get some opinions and suggestions before i do anything. First i want to be able to get him to come to my hand. I've read some threads on "taming" and i thinking im going to put a shirt with my scent in his hide. Im also gonna lay in the bath tub and have him in there with me for awhile. This will hopefully get him use to my scent, thus being a little more calm with my hand close to him. But I can't seem too get an idea on how i will get him to want to walk in my hand. Food will probably be the best thing to give him. But how will i do it?... Should i use food to lure him out of his hide into my hand, then give him the cricket from the tongs.. maybe pick him up then give him the cricket.. Problem is i don't want him thinking everytime i pick him up, the a hopper waiting for him.. Also i was thinking of ways to get him to come when he's called but how can i reward him.. Should i put my hand underneath him and then say "come on kush" and give him a cricket?... Then put him down and repeat after couple of hours?..
I'm just brain storming here and looking for some input on some ideas that i have. All ideas and suggestion you have i would love to hear.. We can all use this thread as "brainstorming for teaching affection"... I plan on taking my time to build trust with kush, so i just want to make sure i've got some effective methods of taming and nothing that will cause anyone to get hurt as he grows up...THANK YOU...
