Hand feeding

I got my baby beardie around 11/23
I've had short, but good handling sessions with her. When and how should I introduce hand feeding?

Hand feeding could be a good way to learn trust. Lets her know you aren't bad because you are giving her food. You could try it but don't force it if she doesn't take to it right away. Be wary though that if you hand feed too much she might get used to it and expect it all the time.

I only try to a few times a week. She shows no interest in bugs, but likes to eat fruit. Well, at least nibble on fruit.
