Skip a day?

I found out I wasn't feeding my beardie enough, so I began feeding her more. I fed her as much as she seemed interested in 2 times a day and she usually ate about 10-12 crickets after eating a few bites of vegetables at each feeding. Today she didn't seem interested in eating really. I got her to eat a very small bite of carrots, one cricket from my fingers, and she actually caught one in the afternoon. Is it normal for a baby to essentially skip a day of eating?
 
My baby Phoenix did the same thing today. She only had about 10 crickets total when she usually has anywhere between 15-20 a day. I offer her how much she wants in a 10-15min time period like I was told to do. She wouldn't even take a bite of greens from my hand like she will do once a day. I'm a first time beardie mommy and I am worried that I am taking care of her right.
 
Sometimes beardies tend to "not be hungry" what i would do is pay attention over the next few days and try offering more feeding session so to speak.

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!
