Problem with juvenile pardalis

Hello!

My first F. pardalis Ambilobes hatched 1 months ago but someone of them dont want to eat nor drink. I really dont know, how to help them. They were incubated at 27°C first two months, after that i decrease the temperature to 21°C (someone told me, they should be incubated at a lower temperature for first 2-3 months). When the first pardalis hatched a put the eggs on a daylight with 27-28°C.

The juveniles are in plastic box with screen cover. The temperature is 26-27°C in the room. I use UVB-5 tube Repti glo. They are feed with micro cricket and fruit flies. I mist the box 4 times per day. Any ideas what i did wrong? Or is this normal that 50 per cent of hatched pardalis die?
 
50% should not die....however, I'm not sure why they won't eat.
Are you letting the crickets and fruit flies loose in the cage? Are they drinking?
What's the temperature in the cage? Are their eyes open during the day?
 
Hello

The crickets and fruit flies are very visible. In the box are few twigs and a part of plastic plant with few small leaves. I think, they dont even drink and most of the they sleep. The temperature in the box is 27-28°C and during night drops to 24°C.

Twelve pardalis looks good, they drink, eat and are very active but the rest eight looks bad since they hatched. I will be very thankful, if someone could share experiences about incubation temperature, humidity.etc.
