I gave you your own thread so the other can pick up where it left off and so that you can get the help you need.
Welcome to the forum. So, you've had your beardie for 3 days. If you could answer these questions, it would be very helpful so we can figure out if something might need to be changed to help his appetite get better. I suspect that you got your baby at a pet store and since they give lots of wrong information, they may have very well sold you a compact or coil UVB. If they did, please turn it off immediately before any damage is done as those bulbs are VERY dangerous, especially for babies. Also, you probably are using a stick-on type thermometer, like a strip or round gauge as pet stores always push those too but they are VERY inaccurate. The only 2 ways to get an accurate reading are with either a temperature gun or a digital thermometer with a long wire & probe end like this one.
Once you answer these questions, we can help you futher. Thanks.
