Is this normal for a baby?

So recently (i.e yesterday) I bought my second baby Bearded after an incident with my cat killed my sweet girl Bambi (I sadly wasn't home when the cat got in)

He's very small, around 2 and a half inches from nose tip to tail tip so I assume he's quite young, I'd say no older than a month but I'm inexperienced. The thing is he hasn't been eating much the last two days. He ate maybe five pinhead crickets yesterday but hasn't eaten at all today. He is kind of active as he moved down his grape vine or scuttles off to his log but he's also seeming ti sleep more.

I just wanted to know if this was normal for a newly rehomed beardie or if not?

Because he is so young, probably not even two weeks old, maybe not even a week old he's probably not very well started. And the relocation stress could harm him pretty badly as he needs live insects daily, at least 30-60 a day... unlike more developed hatchlings he can't go very long without food or water so keep offering food but only one cricket at a time so it doesn't stress him out with crickets hopping everywhere.
Also spray him in the mornings for hydration. Other than that do not handle him and it may be best to put paper towels on all sides of the enclosure except the front.

Oh my I guess my guess was quite off! Currently it's lights out and he has gone to sleep for the night. Now looking at it I think he did at least eat a few crickets as somethat were left over from last night were gone. I'll make sure to offer as soon as lights are on! Hopefully he'll start to eat more as I am a bit paranoid about everything after the accident with my last dragon. I'll make sure to nist him as soon as he's awake! Thank you for thw reply!

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. 😔
