Is this normal ?

I recently purchased a baby Beardie and I want to say he’s about 2-3 months now. He recently stopped eating and it’s been about 2 days now. I did notice that he is shedding but I am concerned because he’s lost weight and he just wants to bask all day. He normally will go after the crickets but he isn’t at all interested in this batch and he just seems very lethargic. We give him baths daily. Is there anything that I can do to make him eat ?

Please go over the tank set up- basking temps what are they and how are you taking them? No stickons- they are inaccurate you need a digital probe thermometer
What are you using for a UVB? No coils please they are inadequate
If you can post pics of the tank and lighting please

Ok your uvb is a tube T 5 or a T 8? Placement is very important-- you need to get a digital probe thermometer+- those stickons are not accurate- his temps need to be 105-110 -- he needs to be able to sit directly underneath the uvb-- but I need to know the brand and bulb--- look on the bulb it will tell you--

I’m new myself. Had mine a couple months. She wouldn’t eat crickets when I got her and she definitely wouldn’t eat in a separate area. Got her Dubia roaches and fed her in the tank and she started eating. Not sure if that could be the case.
