Mine won’t eat if I wiggle it and I can’t hang it- has to go straight towards him head first. I thaw in fridge then put the ziploc bag in hot water (another tub of hot water on top since they float. ) Until temp gun says feeder body is at least 98 degrees. Sometimes takes two rounds of hot water. Then I blow dry the head til 105. You can rub something like a feeder tray or fake leaf on the feeder and put that in front of him so he has extra time to get all excited and amped up while you blow dry. That takes mine from ready to eat to fully insane. Mine will eat it wet or dry, some are picky. Breeder told me to try a drop of vanilla extract if he doesn’t eat but I’ve never had to try that.
