Fussy Ackie...

I have a juvenile Ackie, growing well and feeding well on crickets...he is a REALLY fussy eater though...

When a cricket goes in he destroys it, when a cricket goes in coated in calcium/vitamins he takes a few seconds then destroys it...but that's about it...

I have recently tried him on small Woodies but he won't have a bar of them, gets excited, runs up, flicks his tongue a few times - then does nothing...

I have tried cafood (which he ate a little bit of when we first got him) but he won't touch that either...

I don't mind feeding him on crickets except that I was planning on breeding some Woodies for him and don't have any desire to breed crickets...any ideas on how to get him going for the Woodies?
