What do you mean by "not acting normal"?
Have you checked it's temps?
Is his poop solid?
IMO, Jumpstart has a lot of fat and not much more.
If your dragon has parasites or something, Jumpstart isn't going to do any good.
Yes, of course you should see if your dragon will eat crickets..

We agree with Christy. We thought that jump start was to get a reptile that was off his feed back to eating again, but we have never used it. Anyway you want to be feeding your dragon the correct size crickets ( no longer than the width of your dragons head acroos the eyes), dusted with a good calcium powder with vitamin D3 and also finely chopped greens with a good calcium to phosphorios ratio. Also dust with a multi vitamin once or twice a week.
