1st time hatchling baby question

out of 18 eggs 17 hatched i have them in 3 containers one for each date out of the shell the firday (1st day) has not started to eat yet offered greens and crickets
now im not too worried yet as they say it can take a week or so for them to start eating but my question is when should i start to worry and whats the best way to get them to start eating
im keeping them in the incubator till they start eating for humidity mostly
so i guess thats another question show i move them into a tank that has high basking temps and lower humidity and keep misted
sorry this is the 1st clutch ive hatched and i want to make sure all the hatched dragons live long healthy lives
thanks mike

They all should be eating good within a week.

I offer chopped up collards and 1/4" crickets for their first meals.if they seem reluctant to feed get some mini mealworms from Florida. not regular mealworms but the fast crawling black ones. they are like magic for getting baby beardies to eat.

No worries, just keep greens available at all times and they'll catch. Bugs are always more exciting to babies. Glad they're eating

I always have fresh greens available. Mine is a mix of mustard and kale.
