I agree with Ginger. The same exact thing happened to me when I tried the glass bowl on my adult White's.
I buried the bowl up to the rim and let the crickets just sort of dance around in the bottom of it. I even tilted the thing so he could see directly into it (he has bad eyes), and for the longest time he just sat and stared at it. When he finally did attack, he missed and the crickets escaped everywhere because he tilted the bowl and kind of launched them out. That's the first and last time I tried the glass bowl on him. XD;
Even when I feed my guys nowadays, all of them (I have one adult, one juvie, and two babies) just stare intently for the longest time until the cricket goes right up to them, THEN they attack it. My adult had been doing this since I first got him, and when my juvie was a baby he would actually hunt them down, but now that he's older he'll just sit there (mostly) and wait for the food to come to him.
I think it's pretty normal. XD;
I would try to add a more direct route to the hammock. Do you have a picture of the enclosure you can post so we know what it looks like?
