Few Questions sorry!!

1. Oranges ok for Crested Geckos to eat?

2. We bought the t-rex CGD, since we couldnt see they were eating any crickets on there own since we got them from the pet store. only hand feeding baby food. do they not need any other food besides the t-rex for a while?

3. Being so young is it safe to pick them up and handle them a lot?

4. Cage set up ok?

Any citrus, including oranges are bad for crested geckos.
I don't use CGD, but I think that you don't have to feed them anything else if you give CGD to them.
You can hold them while they're little, but they're more likely to drop their tails during handling when they're young. Also, if they're new, you should give them at least a few days to get used to their new home.

I'm not sure, if its only a few licks then it could be ok.But if you have a herp vet, then you should ask him.
