adult dragons should be eating 80% veges, and only 20% crickets. You shouldnt feed them insects every day, just 2 or 3 times a week. As far as how many? I dont know. I'd guess about 15-20 crickets a day, 2-3 times a week. I may be wrong as all my dragons are about 5 months. Maybe someone else will have a more definite answer. but, i do know that you shouldnt feed an adult dragon crickets everyday. Hope i helped!

1.2 Bearded Dragons. Chong, Cheech, Unnamed
0.1 Anery Motley Corn. Cleopatra
1.0 Creamsicle Corn. Faunzy
1.1 Black Labs. Buddy, Booger
1.0 Room mate. Clayton - requires more clean up than my pets.

I give a green mix (collard, mustard, turnip, etc., no lettuce) daily and insects 5x a week how many should I feed each time though? Thanks for any advice!

NEVER feed a specific number. just keep throwing crickets in with it until it stops eating them. let it fill its belly.
