Default Fat tail stopped eating all of sudden.

As of 3-4 days ago, my fat tail stopped eating crickets.

He's not completely starving himself, I know I did something wrong,
because to encourage him to eat I left some crickets over night (4)
and 2 of them went missing by the next morning.

I took the crickets out, redusted them with others and put it back in
later that day, but he just doesn't seem interested in them like he used to.

I also noticed a wet poo in his toilet area today.

I'm starting to get worried..

Could it be brumation? My room temperature is 20 degree c, there is a heat pad under it, and he/she just shedded 5 days ago.

Help..
