What size crickets for hatchlings?

I know this has probably been covered a million times, but I looked through the archives and couldn't find a definate answer. Should I order 1/4 or 1/8 size crix. Thanks

Depends on how many you are going to order and how much your beardie eats
...As much as hatchlings can eat, and since they eat 2-3X a day, I would order 1/8" so they can grow w/o getting too large for your beardie if you are going to order a large amount.
If you are only going to order 500, then order 1/4" because they won't last.
