Give it a few days, keep offering him greens and let him settle in for a few days.

Shipping can cause a lot of stress. when I sell BDs to people, I recomend they soak them in a warm bath upon arrival. You might want to try that a couple times. a relaxing 20 minute warm soak. When he goes back in the cage try offering some treats like superworms or crix as well as salad. Find out from the person you got him from his favorite foods. One of the BDs I got from Jersey Dragons took a week before it started eating.
