Can you explain more on the taming through feeding. I got ornate nile and I feed with 16" long tongs. I usually have it come out to my lap to get the food and then I try to pet it as much as it will let me while its on my lap. Is this is what you are talking about, or more of just letting the lizard know you are the feeder not he raper?
