He used to be soft and damp/warm to the touch, but now he's dry and cold. He doesn't puff up anymore either when I touch him. I added cal-stron with D3 to his crickets, so besides the light and that, there's nothing new added to his tank. He went from eating about 5 med crickets a day to 3 in maybe a week.
Does he still look of normal weight or does he look like he's lost weight? Check his substrate and make sure its plenty moist. Don't spray him directly if the water your misting with is distilled. The light will dry him and his substrate out that's why I suggested a fake plant preferably with large open leaves for shade. Soak him in the luke warm water. Make sure you do it somewhere warm as he needs to be warm. He should urinate in the water. After he does check to make sure his weight looks normal. You may have to start force feeding him if he doesn't eat. How low does it get in his tank at night? If there are too many degrees from day to night it can stress him and make him not eat. No more than a 3 to 5 degree drop or it could possibly stress him. Try the luke warm water and honey. If you need to force feed I can instruct you if you need help.
