He's plenty hydrated from the sound of it. No need to spray more than twice a day, otherwise you could be getting the humidity too high. The baths help, so between that and once or twice a day spraying he should be fine.

He isn't if he's stopped drinking or only drinks every few days. Thus why I spray him so often I never let loose water just sit on his waells or flooring.
An if his cool side is getting around 74.6 f in the morning an 80 mid day without the extra light is that okay? I moved the second light to his warm side just to help hold more heat on that side. his cool side stays almost a constant 79.2 - 80.4 with the light over there. Thanks

Hard to say if there would be enough of a parasite count to show symptoms at 2-3 months old, since the life cycles of most parasites are 8-14 weeks, but I agree it is better to be safe and have that checked. There are parasites that can cause poor appetite, although usually that would be accompanied by runny or smelly poo.
Unfortunately, there have been some babies that have had parasites and the only symptoms that were noticed were loss of appetite and slightly lower activity level. Since you've had the baby for a month or so and it has settled in, the coccidia level should be normal by now unless other parasites are involved.
Honestly, I think that would get him interested in eating. By the looks of the pictures, he is eating enough to maintain himself. We have 6 babies between the ages of 2 months - 4 months old right now, and two of them eat very little crickets, but the rest gobble them up. If I feed small/baby roaches and extra small silkworms they eat like crazy, they just barely eat crickets, so it is possible for it to be the feeder.
I know exactly what you mean, I just got an order of 500 crickets for Angie and now she isn't eating as many as she was, she wants the horns & silkies that are quite small yet. She did eat some small dubias today though. They get tired of the same foods, just like we do.
He's eaten more today them usual introducing him to 2 other beardies his age I guess made him feel better about himself, lol. He ate around 11 crickets today.
Got the phoenix worms today, he ate 6 medium considering their size it looked like a good meal. He attacked them as soon as they moved unlike his lack of interest in crickets.
I just ordered and got 100 silkworms in a small size..they range from 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch...so they should be fine if you get the small. My beardie loves the small but hates the medium ones. he wont touch them.
