WCs can be highly irregular in behavior from CBs, which are usually consistant.
It can be a challenge to even get them to eat at all. Give them time.
You may need to forget breeding this year and focus on feeding. For all you know, they are used to a diet of birds, eggs, lizards, etc. It all depends on the most available food source where they were caught.
I would stick with what you are doing now until they adapt, unless you are dead set on breeding this year. If so, you may want to try chicks, quail, small unwashed eggs, etc.
Just MHO
Good Luck!
