Re: Repashy Diet - How can I get them to eat it?

I would do as you would have with the hand feeding with the conditions you describe. I probably would have done it once or twice then stopped as since they took the food they know it is good. From looking at comparative research of Rhacs vs. Eublepharines and other types of geckos the Rhacs just do not have the same sense of smell or reaction to scent, so a dab on the lips is very helpful for Rhacs to orient to a new food. Hopefully after they did eat it then they would go for it on their own.

Looking forward to hearing more!
