How many crickets should adult and sub-adult bearded dragons eat per day?

For sub-adults, I feed them as much as they want once or twice a day depending on their size. For adults it depends on their weight. You have to be careful that you don't allow them to get too fat. The best plan is to buy a weight scale and then make food decisions based on keeping their weight in a target range. All my dragons have pretty muck full time access to salad.

I feed my dragons twice a day, one feeding of greens and one of roaches.
Their appetites vary, so I just offer each whatever they will eat in about 10 minutes or less, which usually fills them up.
Except for the gravid girls, I feed them as often as I can and as much as they will take of numerous food sources.
