Gonna need more info than this. To me it sounds like ou just got them and tried feeding them. I dont think this ever works, no matter how much you try. I would suggest leaving them alone for at the VERY least a week, probably more, then trying to feed them. But seriously, dont even pull them out to show them off, just leave them be and then try in say two weeks, after they've settled.

Try giving some more info. Whats your setup like? Temps? Humidity? Hides? What are you trying to feed them? What did they eat before you got them? Any and all info has to be here for anyone to give proper help.
