I was wondering how many crickets I should offer to my young baby beardie a day. I was at a web site and it said to feed it 10-20 crickets a say when it is 2-3 months (which is about how old mine will be) and 20-30 at 4-5 months old. To me this seems like a lot, even though it will only be eating small crickets. One other question I have is how old will it be when it is about full grown. I know that it will grow fast in the beginning, them slow down, but I have never read anywhere about how old it will be when its basically done. Thanks a lot.

If you are not offering pellets to supplement the crickets, you should give your Beardie as many crix as they will eat in a 10 minute period 2 times a day. depending on the Beardie it can be 10-50 or more a day. Once they reach about a year old they are pretty much adults and they will naturally eat less crix and more salad.
