My stubborn man

I'm positive that all of you know how stubborn a beardie can be.
I have made several posts about my boy, Dovah, and his unwillingness to eat anything. After vet trips, different feeders, different techniques, and just shy of 8 months having him, I finally have realized why he is such a stubborn man.
You see, Dovah will only eat when he is tong fed. He will reliability eat whatever is given to him via tongs. While I do have a job, and I am in college, I am largely able to adapt to this new schedule.
I would really appreciate tips for weaning him off of tong feedings!
I would also like to take this post to tell everyone that it's okay to doubt yourself. I was seriously considering rehoming Dovah for several months because of this issue. I was able to find a way to make it work out, but being a pet owner is stressful. It's okay to need advice!

Good for you for persisting and figuring it out!

I'm new so I don't have any advice but wanted to say that. :)

Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
