Just a tip, if you're trying to turn him around while he's lethargic, I'd recommend stopping the crickets, veggies, and pelleted food. Crickets might be too fast for him to catch, depending on how his mobility is, and some greens like kale and spinach contain a high amount of oxalates which can bind to any calcium he's getting, and prevent him from absorbing it.

Instead, I'd feed some slower insects you can put in a shallow dish and will typically stay there (esp. if it's slick, like glass).

Black soldier fly larvae are a good option; they're reasonably priced and naturally very high in calcium. I order mine from Fluker's.

I'd also get some small or x-small dubia roaches; every bearded I've known, even the sick ones, love them. They're more expensive, but worth a try. Here's one option from Amazon:

You can also try dubiaroaches.com, which will let you order them in smaller amounts, but can be pricier than the Amazon vendor.

Lastly, I would make sure to dust everything with Calcium+D3 every day (make sure your calcium has D3). You can add liquid calcium to the water you soak him in as well.

Make sure he has a basking spot at 105F+, and that your compact lamp is situated over the basking spot (if he spends most of his time there). You may want an ornament or something to elevate the basking spot; for the compact UVB lamps, I'd say try to make sure he basks no more than about 8-10 inches away from the UV light source.

Last, and as always, take him to the vet if you can afford it. They'll probably be able to give you calcium supplements, and check his stool for parasites (coccidia and pinworms are very common, and can drag down a young beardie that's already having problems).

I bought 2 beardies around mid-May, but I believe they were born around a month earlier, so ours are pretty even in age. With that in mind... my male beardie eats at least 50 3/8 inch crickets a day (we recently gave him some full grown crickets and he ate 15 in a few minutes) - and the female beardie eats maybe 15-20 (at least thats what we see her eat). I also supplement her intake with (this is similar to what I use, couldn't find exactly what I use).. I don't know about the thing on his foot, but everything else could possibly be attributed to lack of energy (nothing to back this up, just an educated guess). I believe the general rule of thumb is to feed them as much as they can eat in 15 minutes.
