Picky newts...

[DeCypher]

I have 4 red-spotted newts who gladly accept earthworms...it's just that they only eat if they're in the water, and the worm is directly in front of their face, and if i drop it in front of their face, they get freaked out and swim away...any techniques to try?

tweezers, and to move it in front of them very slowly.

Thank you very much. I will try it...i have tried it by handfeeding them and they got nervous...is there a difference?
