So my baby dragon this evening it’s about 530EST time. Only ate about 8-9 crickets then just plunged out on his branch and didn’t seem to want any of the others. I feel for a meal only 8-9 crickets is not a lot at all. Should I just take the rest of the crickets out there is only 2-3 left in his tank or just wait a bit and see if he eats them. I don’t want to leave them in there overnight
 
Babies will sometimes turn their nose at food if there is another stimulant outside. Like you standing at the cage or an odd noise etc. Babies are quite skittish and actually dont eat a lot until they're more "teenager" age. Definitely dont leave crickets in overnight as they will bite him while hes sleeping and cause stress.

How old is he and how long is he?

He is about 6 inches he is def a baby and I was standing by the tank which is my fault. He is fairly new. He’s been very active which is good! But I was just concerned about the eating. He did eat fresh greens out of my hand earlier also
 
At 6 inches 8-9 doesnt sound like its too little. Especially if hes fairly new to the new surroundings. Youre not doing anything wrong by standing and watching! Its just something he'll have to get used to which will take time. Thats also wonderful that he ate from your hand! Thats great for bonding. I wish you the best of luck with your new beardie!

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
