Jackson's Not Eating?

Not eating crickets so much, I was wondering if there was some possibility of something. This weekend I ran out of crickets and was waiting for my delivery of crickets that I'd ordered online. The only source of food that I had for my chams was superworms. I gave my veiled a few over the weekend so he wasn't too hungry, and I gave a few smaller ones to my young Jackson's. Since the weekend he doesn't seem interested in crickets anymore. I don't think he's been overfed as he doesn't look like it. He hasn't had anything to eat for 4 days now. I offered him a waxworm as a test today, and he took it right away. Is it possible that in one day I've spoiled him off of crickets? If I have is there a way to get him back to crickets? I only gave him 2-3 small superworms as an interim source of food and wasn't intending to give him more than a couple. My veiled had a few big superworms but he still eats crickets happily. Can anyone here render advice? I've experienced my Jackson's not eating only twice when I mistakenly overfed him twice. Once he defecated a few times he was eating well again. Now when I try to hand feed him (he always went for it before) he just head jerks territorially and refuses to take food.
