he wont eat :/

i usually feed Tater in a seperate cage so i dont have to chase crickets around his cage at night to get them out, but for the last week or so i was feeding him inside his cage and he would take the crickets out of my hand. but i want to get him feeding in a seperate cage again. so i tried it last night, and this morning but he wouldnt eat. so this morning right after i put him back in his regular cage i tried giving him a cricket and he ate it. so what can i do to get him feeding in the seperate cage again??

well if im gonna hand feed him ill just do it in his regular cage. why bother putting him in another cage if im gonna be doing the same thing anyway. lol.

you could hand feed him in the feeding cage for a lil bit and try to coax him to eat in the feeding tank, maybe offer him a cricket and when he goes for it drop it in the cage so he has to catch it... IDK> Thats what I did with mine, and they both know now that when the rubber maid comes out they get feed! it is very nice having a feeding tank!
