Mine is the same way! When I put him in the bin the only thing he is concerned with is exploring. I've tried leaving him in there for upwards of forty five minutes to an hour, and he did eat one or two crickets...but that's it. He has no interest in his food when he's in there.

So I, too, have been caving and feeding him in his cage...where he eats voraciously!

I figure (like you and others have mentioned) that while he's a baby like this it isn't a "huge" deal. I'll have to force him to eat in the bin when he grows a bit, but for now...I just like to see him eat a healthy amount! :igu
