6.25 inches nice 'baby' lol. My boy is 2 and a half months old now and 5 and a bit inches but still has baby colours. When will these go away?

They gradually fade as they mature. There may still be traces of them as an adult, but not much. Some lose them completely.

Do you think I could train him to eat from tongs or is it too late? I have the Exo Terra ones with the rubber ends so they are safe if he bites them.

All tongs are dangerous if not used correctly. Under the rubber tips the tongs are very sharp. I have a couple pairs of those, but stopped using them after realizing how easily the rubber comes off. I use the regular stainless forcepts.

You can tong train him, but you will need to offer something from the tongs that he really likes so that he will bite at it.
