Actually she's called a dam. A dame is a classy lady from the '40s, but hey, maybe she fits that description too!

As long as its not a damn dame?

Careful with the tongs.... These do pose a risk for tongue injury.

Just get a small plastic cup. put your feeders in there and hold it for him to eat from. He will see them moving and come take them if he associates you with food.

I dont use the tongs to actually feed him just to put the bug in front of him, I don't have it in me yet to grab the bugs with my fingers lol so no worries then and that's what I will try out since he's comfortable with my hand around him now

That's a thing? ?
I figured if that's where the bugs are that's where they're going to eat... ZOT!!

He was used to being hand fed he would just look at the bugs in his cup and continue his stroll i knew eventually he would get it down just glad it happened already

 

[JuniorC]

Well after a few weeks my panther finally eats dubias out of his cup. He would eat the other bugs and leave the dubis in there but now he eats them all! Success!

He is super handsome! Careful with the twist ties... The covering will deteriorate and the wires end up being very sharp.

Thank you for the heads up. I'll just start replacing them every so often to prevent that. Its just so easy with those lol

I use the tiny zip ties for pothos vines... Clean cut the piece that sticks out so that there is not a sharp. But I do not hook them down tight just enough to hold into place. With long vines I just weave them in and out of the branches and they hold themselves.

He really has some amazing colors. How is his temperament?
