does red confuse him?

[Baby Lobie]

so my 8 1/2 week old panther wont eat out of this red cup.. is it the color???? he will sometimes eat out of the clear ones but not this one... i feel stupid for thinking this, but can the bright red be throwing him off? lol...

 

[camimom]

it can.

my male veiled hated when i had green nails but when i changed them to a light pink he stopped flaring up trying to bite me.

oh my... lol. well ok its either the red plastic cup.. or the fact that i have been trying to feed him a meal worm which barely moves! is there any way of making it more attractive to him? he wont even glance at it!

you can get feeder tongs and squeeze it a bit which will make it squirm
