I've kept tokays for a while now, and with two of them, I witnessed something similar to that when I first got them. As it turned out, it wasn't that they weren't eating, it's just that they weren't eating while I was watching. Now both are hogs, and eat like maniacs. I'd throw crickets in there, and in the morning, most would be gone...maybe that's what's happening with yours, I'm not sure. If you're putting a large amount of crickets in there, try putting less, and count the number you throw in there to see if maybe the tokay's chowing down while you're not watching. I wouldn't resort to force-feeding, that's never pleasant. Maybe try a live pinkie, they love those as well. Anyway, good luck
Kevin
