How many crickets?

I just got a cb frilled baby two days ago, and he's been eating about 3-4 small crickets a day, is this enough?

Depending uopn the size of the crickets, that might be enough, you should also try meal worms, waxworms, silkworms, or small roaches, or occasionaly a mix of high-quality cat/dog food, mixed with finely shredded carrots and some dark leafy greens(collards, dandilions, kale, cilantro, romaine lettuce) If you are providing a variety of foods, the only thing left is to make sure that he/she is getting a full meal, I feed my Frilly just about eveyday, until he is full, its also important to make sure that they dont overeat and get obese, but I havent really heard of too many over weight frilleds. Just make sure that your Frilled Dragon isnt looking thin after eating.
