Esmeralda only wants whole prey items as well. Crickets are her favorite by far. If I try to offer her a ground meat item she will 100% ignore it. The comprise we've made is cricket burittos. I wrap the cricket in meat, making sure the head or butt is left hanging out. When she goes to sniff it, she smells the cricket and in her excitment to eat, takes a big ol bite of everything. :p

Try misting him with warm water twice a day, and keep the humidity up.
