New beardie owner. Help needed please. ^^

Greetz... I've recently acquired a young beardie and have finally gotten him settled in. He's approximately 2 months old. I would like to know how much a beardie this age eats daily? He devoured a dozen crickets in under a minute and seems to be fond of mustard greens for breakfast. Should I up the number of crickets?

As many crickets as he wants in a 10 minute period 3 times a day plus a fresh salad daily. He could go through 100 or more crix a day (some more some less depends on your dragon).

Wow...! O_o I didn't think something so small could have a voracious appetite. The pet shop I bought him from said that they can be fed every couple of days, but I had my doubts about that.
Thanks for the help. ^^
