Jaxson loves his crickets and strawberries. I have to trick him with greens. His heat fornbasking is 100-110 and humidity is between 25-40%. He poops great and chases the crickets during feeding but slowed down a little. He likes to be held HOWEVER he is otherwise lazy. He doesn’t move around a lot and at bath time he scratches to get out. I pull a ball in the bath for him to play with and he isn’t interested. He doesn’t hide, he stays out all the time actually. He only wants to move for crickets. How can I get him to be more active? He is maybe 3 months.

They aren't active all the time. They like to sit and bask a lot and that's fine. It's good that he's chasing the crickets around. If he doesn't seem to like the bath, I'd hold off on them unless he gets soiled and really needs it. They aren't worth the stress otherwise. Have you taken him out of the tank and tried interacting with him in a safe area? If you can provide an area with no other animals that has small things picked up off the floor and areas that he could get stuck in blocked off, letting him explore and run around might be good for him. They also tend to enjoy sitting on a window sill and looking outside. Just keep him closely supervised when he's out.
