I also think it might be appealing because it's warm. I think it could be an easy way to get him to eat and get key parts of his diet. I've made the omelet before and my crabs liked it, and this is just a theory, but maybe it can help get him the nutrients he needs. http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to- ... /?ALLSTEPS

If you think he is molting cover the tank with a towel or something to make it dark for him. It will help release the molting hormone ecdysone. Keep offering the honey as it is a easy high energy food. He will need it if he is truly molting. :/
