Unhappy New baby dragon not eating

I picked up two unrelated baby beardies at the Calgary show. They are both active and alert and look quite healthy as far as I can see. The smaller one is about 3-4 weeks old and the other one is 5-6 weeks.

I have them in a 66 gal tank with full lenght UV and a good heat gradient. The floor of the warm end is 80-90 deg. (UTH) and there are rocks to hide in/around and bask on. There is a heat lamp over the rocks and the temp up there is 90-100 deg.

I put them (one at a time) into a 5.5 gal tank with week old crickets. I'm doing this about 3 times a day for now.

The older one eats lots of crickets and some of the greens that I have in the main tank. The smaller one has only eaten crickets for me on one occation. He just sits there while the little cricks run all over. What can I do?
