Have you emailed him directly? He's on here a lot. I'm sure he might be able to shed some light for you...

I got Scary to eat the first time by putting her in her feeding container and surrounding her with active crickets. The movement stimulated her to strike. 8)
Other posters here are correct. Mealworms are not a good thing for beardies. Crickets are the ticket for small growing beardies. Scary has gone from 8" to 16" in two months.
I agree with the other poster that you sure sound like you have a lot of heating implements in your Viv. Are you sure with all that stuff that it is only in the low 90s? I have one UVB in a pretty big tank and it gets the hot spot to 100F and the far spot in the upper 70s, which seems to suit Scary just fine.
