Bearded Dragon Egg

Hello! I'm very new to the beardie way of life, and despite my research efforts, I still have a lot of questions. I purchased the "All Things Living" 40 gallon bearded dragon kit from Petsmart and it came with a 26W UVB high-output bulb and 100 watt basking bulb (see long link below). The tank is 36" long so I believe I actually need a 22" T5 HO 10.0 fluorescent bulb (to achieve 2/3 coverage as I've read) and I'm not sure if 100W is appropriate for my basking situation. I seem to only be getting 90 degrees at the basking point (using a laser thermometer). My beardie is a baby so I know it should be 100-107. Any suggestions there? I have also posted a pic of my setup and would love your expert feedback. My beardie hasn't eaten much since I bought him/her yesterday...2 crickets, and 4 nymph roaches. He/she sleeps most of the time and I'm not sure if that's normal. Thanks for the advice in advance!
