Should I feed my beardie if the heat bulb is out?

[Veda]

I'm out of town and my dad is taking care of my beardie. Today he told me the heat bulb went out, even thought I only had it for 2 months... Now I'm not sure whether he should feed him or not, since there won't be appropriate temperatures for him to digest his food (my dad said it's around 26°C). On the other hand tho, I've read that babies and juveniles shouldn't go without food for over 24h. He is around 9 months old, the UVB is working and he's getting a new heat bulb tomorrow. What should I do?

(Sorry if it's not the right category, I'm new to the forum)

Yes try and feed him ----- he may not eat and it wont hurt him to go w/ out a day of not eating either-
