I put my mealies in a separate container. It's a hard plastic cup, probably a salad dressing cup from a restaurant (I didn't steal it, someone else did). The mealies don't see to be able to grip the plastic so they can't get out. A couple times at the beginning, he knocked the cup over and a mealie got loose in the cage. I found them when I changed the liner.
Now, he doesn't let them live that long. That's where I put new veggies/fruit for him to try.
When I first got him to eat them, I held that cup under his nose while holding him. He sniffed at them a bit and then suddenly scarfed them down.
