We brought a new beardie last night, the shop keeper said it was around 4 weeks old. This is my first lizard so I'm not sure how things go hence asking here for advice, I'm guessing it would be best to fully explain my situation and see what people have to say.
We got home with our little guy around 9:30pm upon placing him in the viv he seemed to take to it well, he ran around a lot, climbed his logs and generally didn't seem very scared. We left him be for the first hour so he could get used to his new surroundings then decided to place in a few dusted crickets. He ate all these and went back to laying on his log. He seemed rather tired and I hadn't seen him drink yet, so I dripped a few droplets of water onto his nose which he soon lapped up. We left him be as much as possible and tbh he soon fell asleep.
Upon waking this morning he seemed very lazy, he didn't wanna do much moving around at all, he seemed more fixated on being lazy on top of his log hide, trying to sleep it seemed. I placed in a couple more crickets which he paid no attention too. He started walking around for a little, did his first poo and drank some more water from the end of his nose. He took to laying on the heat mat under the log hide this time and didn't really come out for quite a while. When he eventually did he threw up the crickets from last night. He then went back to being lay on the heat mat before moving to the top of the log under the basking light. I placed in a few more crickets hoping he might get something else inside himself since being sick however he paid no attention to them. Since I'm keeping a close eye on him I decided to leave the crickets inside with him in case he does pick up a appetite. So far I haven't seen him eat any. He has however took little nibbles at the dandelion leaves I left inside. For about the last hour he has gained a lot of his energy back. He's been running around loads even jumping up the glass. He's been drinking water I've dropped on his nose and licking it from the dandelion leaves. However he's not taken to trying to eat anymore crickets, he ignores them 100% much prefers being lay under his basking light or climbing some of the fake plants inside of his viv.

named by girlfriend and sadly I do not have any pics yet. However I shall have some within the next couple days and I'll be sure to upload them aswell as some pics of his viv. 
I'm enjoying his company a lot atm he always seems to be running around like crazy and jumping up the glass. Ofc till he notices me then he either pretends i'm not here and eats some leaves else hides on his log flat and watchs me.
