New baby bearded dragon not eating

Hi guys I recently bought a baby bearded dragon (4 week) about 5-6 days ago I have him in a pretty big enclosure about 160 litters and almost 4 foot long the substrate was sand at the start but heard it was bad and quickly changed to wood flooring for now. I have a digital thermostat with probe and basking temps are 100f cool side about 85f my uvb is an Arcadia 42inch 10% d3 bulb . I always have fresh veggies in there for him but ever since I got him he really rarely eats I've tried almost everything from the pet shop small brown crickets small dubias and very small mealworms he really only eats the mealworms 1 or 2 a day I have a feeding bin where I put my crickets but he seems scared of them or not interested at all just trys to climb out today I gave him a luke warm bath and drank quite a bit of water (I always have water for him in the enclosure) I just want him to be happy and healthy any advice or tips will be much appreciated

Hi thank you for replying I'm trying my utmost to make him happy because of relocation stress if you have some spare time can you check my YouTube video of my setup
I will double check the distance from the lights to the basking spot

hey!
I was wondering what wood you used and how it worked? Did you lay down anything underneath?
Thanks!!
