New Crested Geckos Not Eating?

[Revasius]

Hello!

I just got my pair of cresties last Saturday, and they aren't eating regularly on their own from what I can tell. (I haven't seen any lick marks in their dish). However, they will lap up the CGD (Repashy, same as they were being fed when I got them), if I dab some on my finger or hold the bowl up for them. I really don't want them to get too used to being hand-fed... Is there any way I can get them to start eating soon? I'm concerned that they will not eat on their own and start loosing weight.

Thanks!

If they're new that's normal, leave them alone don't try to handle them. Make sure they have plenty of cover. They're getting use to they're new environment, they need to adjust so just keep offering the cgd and just let them be.
