I have radiateds, but have never accounted a trouble feeder. I've even worked with parasite loaded wild caughts that didn't survive, but would still eat...so I don't know what to tell you.

I'll keep trying. For a minute I thought I was the only one that kept them. I thought I might have been onto something big.

I have a young radiated I have had since she was 1 1/2 weeks old. She was a problem feeder until I realized she needed to be left in her feed box in a quiet room. It still takes her a good 15 mins before she will eat, but she goes to town once she feels safe.

I have 1.2 Radiateds and never had a feeding problem. I will assume they are captive-breed and not parasite loaded. Do you provide a hide box?
