Today I moved the cup back a bit, out of the cage, and he put both front feet on my hand to get to the cup of crickets. Then, he almost dropped his half-eaten cricket on my hand which totally grossed me out so I flinched. Oops! GROSS. He backed up into his cage, I felt really bad for startling him, but then I just didn't offer my hand for him to lean on and he proceeded to keep grabbing crickets out of the cup so at least I didn't scare him from cup feeding.
He ate 5 crickets, medium sized, dusted in Miner-All. Earlier he ate one large superworm.
It is great to see him having such an appetite. He's still hunting with his eyes and posture but I think I will wait and offer a small snack this afternoon instead of just tons of crickets at once.
