two peas in a pod

i just got a asian forest scorpion and i’ve been having a hard time getting him to eat! he’s quite small so i do think he’s a juvenile and i read somewhere that they eat a lot but he doesn’t have much of appetite. And suggestions or knowledge?And don’t worry i removed the cricket after 24 hours!
Does he have a dark hide to retreat to? Sometimes they feel more comfortable attacking food from a secure spot like a burrow or hide
 
it takes about 2-3 weeks for them to settle. Once they've settled they'll eat. They only need to be fed once a week if that. Beautiful scorpion by the way!

yes! he has numerous. One being a flower pot ,another a crafty rock hide i found ,and then there’s artificial plants in his enclosure that offer more security. But even then the cricket will go into the den with him and he won’t do anything.
