I think if they still have a lot of yolk reserve (which they can have for several weeks) that once the yolk reserve has been completely consumed they will get hungry. As you know, I have two little buggers of my own that are trying my patience, but I do think the yolk reserve is still in play with them, and if I wait they will eventually eat. I do offer food in their cages daily, and try hand feeding a couple times a week to those who do not eat the pink in their cage.

the main reason I suspect the yolk reserve is that I even offered my two stubborn ones a live fence lizard, and all that happened is the poor little lizard had a day of terror. "Dear God, I hope it doesn't see me!" Prayers answered, lizard back in its own cage.
