I try (if possible) to feed every day...even multiple times a day, and I supplement every feeding with vit/calcium. As they grow, the crickets get bigger, so I feed less, and less often. Once they reach adult size, not nearly as much of the intake is going towards producing biomass...just maintaining it. I feed every other day, daily, skip a couple days...leave the lights off for a week while on vacation and don't feed at all...you get the picture.
