Well I feel like my baby beardie is in trouble....

Hi there, I have a baby beardie that is about 6 weeks old. Have been feeding him by hand to control his intake and he hasn't had a problem, crickets the right size with calcium and vitamens. Went camping and put several crickets in there to tide him over for two days. I get back and he didn't eat all the crickets and acted totally normal except when I pick him up. He flattens himself out like a normal response but then has a seizure of some sorts. Not just the lower body but all over, he totally stiffens up, quivers a bit and acts like he is dead. It lasts about 30 seconds and when I put him down, he comes out of it right away and runs off on his merry way like nothing happened. He has done this several times (only when I pick him up) and I have removed all the food from the cage just incase gorging is the problem and gave him a warm soak to move things along (in case it is his bowels) which he tolerated well and had a drink at the time. What is going on with him and is there anything I can do for him or is he goofing with me?
