As was already mentioned, I wouldn't try to feed any more than once every 7-10 days. As far as feeding techniques though...I only have one gtp that has never had feeding problems but I have, with other species, gently pushed the nose of the pinkie up under their top lip and rubbed a bit so they get a taste. I don't know if this will work with a gtp but it might be worth a try.
