Not sure if this is a problem?

My new beardie (no name yet) is about two months old. We got him a week ago. He had been eating crickets really good, now only is eating about 5 crickets a day. He isn't eating any greens at all. He basks all day. I noticed this evening that it looks like his eyes are not open all of the way. Is this normal for a baby? I just installed his Reptisun 10.0 tube light shortly before that. For a basking light I am using a 50 Watt halogen spot bulb. His basking area ranges from 105 - 109 degrees, measured with a temp gun. He is 5 1/2" long and weighs 0.2 oz. I am not sure what appropriate weights are for beardies. He is small, but all of the babies were at the breeder that we bought him from.
So, should I be concerned? I have been dusting his crickets with phosphorus free calcium with d3, as suggested also.
Thank you
Amy

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
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!
