Ive been hand feeding my geckos since I got them.So now if I use a dish with mealies its like they dont know what to do.They try and get the mealies through the glass/plastic and arent smart enough to climb into the dish to get them.If I put them on the ground right in front of them they will eat but the worms sometimes crawl away too fast and hide under the papertowel.
So am i doomed to spend the rest of my life as a personal servant to these two or will they eventually figure it out.I still like to feed them by hand but everyday can get a bit tedious.I dont want them losing wieght cause they are only eating on the days I handfeed either.
What kind of dish could I use that the worms cant get out of but the geckos can reach them.

Spoiled geckos or just retarded?

LOL I'm sure they will figure it out. Try using a bowl that they can't see through, it will stop them from trying to eat the bowl instead of the worms.
You could also try placing their front feet on the edge of the bowl and drop a few worms into it while they are up there, they may then notice where the worms are and how to get to them.
