New baby RB's not eating?

Maybe they don't like bloodworms. My P's luv shrimp but my wolf won't touch it and he's an absolute hog. Another thing - try feeding with the lights off and don't stare at them, leave the room for awhile.

Try keeping a varied diet. At that size you can do earthworm, cut up market fish, silversides and vegetable matter.

beefheart is a fave also. They will put on serious weight when you feed them beefheart.

Large quantity of beefheart is bad for them though

This. When I first got my Ps they didn't eat nearly as often as I thought they should or they would barely eat any at all. Turns out after giving them food and leaving the room for 15 minutes they would eat every single time. I guess they were just afraid so they wouldn't eat.
