how old is your beardie? what are you using to temp the enclosure?(are you using a temp gun?)the basking area should be 105-115 degrees for adults and 110-120 degrees for babies...the ambient cage temp should be 80-85 degrees at the coolest end of enclosure

Your beardie may just be getting used to the new temps.
Also, what are you using to read the temps? If you are using anything other than a digital thermometer or a temp gun then your reading may be off (in either direction) by up to 20degrees! It could be that the tank is actually much hotter than you think and is stressing out your beardies.
Good luck~
