I've tried it two ways. I slice them thin, then boil 'em for about 10 mins. The other way is to just slice 'em thin and feed raw. both ways they just nibble at them, they've been sorta indifferent about them...

Thanks, I tried boiling them and slicing them and he ate it. There's not much of anything that he will eat.

That he will eat or won't eat?

that he will eat. The only things I have gotten him to eat were carrots, aquatic plants, turnips, snails, crickets, and pellets.
