As much as he wants to eat. They cannot be overfed as juviniles, so let him eat as often and as much as he wants. 1/8 inch crickets are way too small, he could eat 1/2 inch easily, and he wouldn't have to eat as many to be satisfied. Waxworms are good for a treat. They also like feeder fish, earthworms, mice, superworms and other feeder insects. He is a little small for mice, mine ate a pinky mouse for the first time at 11 inches.
