At his age, you should let him eat as much as he wants twice a day. He may eat as much as a dozen small crickets or worms a day. This time is critical for his overall growth and long-term health, so it's very important that he gets plenty to eat and drink. Try to control the insects somewhat - you don't want loose crickets in his cage overnight.

Juvie jax are always hungry.
When my jax were young, I put a cup of blue bottle fly larve in the cage with a lid on top, and a hole in the side. As the flys hatch, they come out the hole and into the cage.
Durring the day, when I am not home, this gave them something to snack on, then I would feed them their normal dinner when I came home from work.
It's very important to keep jax hydrated with high RH, and a rain system usually works better then a automated misting system to stimulate them to drink.
Dehydration in jax is one of the most common health issues.
If you have a method for giving him water, and you see him drinking, that is very good. But they can be stuborn drinkers.
