OK I remember this pair coming in. They are definitely not from San Diego Zoo because that is where my friend works who I asked about this pair to see if he was aware of any zoo on the "west coast" keeping Pseustes which he did not. I am going to guess that they are imports that were CB. My friend from the SD Zoo is one of their herp keepers and pretty well connected and he has not heard of any zoo keeping Pseustes. Obviously doesn't mean there are not any but it would be less likely.
Have you tried using tongs and sort of attacking them with the food? SoLA uses this technique with pretty good effectiveness but I can not get my problem feeder going this way. He has taken live with no problems though. I am working on getting a different sub of Pseustes in from CB stock. You might be interested in them IF it ever happens...
