Save your self some trouble.
Elvis used to eat everything that walked by him. I fed him every day. Crickets, Silk Worms, Super Worms, Roches, Horn Worms. Soon he refused Crickets, would not even look at them, then it was Silk Worms, he would turn around and walk the other way!!! Then Horn Worms, then Supers. By this point I didn't know what to do. He didn't eat for five straight days. I thought their was something wrong with him. I called Tyler. He gave me the same advice he gave you and it worked. He still will not even look twice at a Cricket. But I got him back on Silk Worms and Supers. He will even take roaches again and Horn Worms. But I only feed him every two or three days. If I try to put something in there every day, he won't touch it.
They are funny creatures. You have to get them to really want their food. At the risk of Anthropomorphasizing, they need to appreciate what you put in there for them.
Hope every thing goes well for you. Your guy is really a stunner!!!
