baby boxies are programmed to hide, mainly to aviod predation. You might try feeding them in a seperate smaller plastic container, and leave them in a quite, undisturbed place in your home and walk away and leave them alone, check back in an hour, hopefully food will be gone. Plus that way your cage stays clean and free of dead rotten worms that attract ants. Also if you give them a soak in a several container from their cage the day before feeding they will likely poop and be ready to eat the next day plus the poop isn't in the living quarters cage, again keeping it cleaner. hope this helps and good luck
