I know I've asked this question before, but never really got an answer. How many crickets is normal for a young veiled to eat in a day? my guy sometimes has a bottomless pit for a stomach. I was told to feed him a dozen a day when I got him, but he easily consumes 20 or more a day. I start with the 12 in the morning and throw some more in the evening and sometimes more during the day. like today, he seems restless and hunting so I have thrown crickets in a couple extra times already. he always goes right after them. i have caught him trying to eat the fake plants and i think he even tried eating paper towel off the bottom, so i take this as a sign that he is hungry. he is growing healthy looking and pooping ok. will he overeat if I give him too many, or will he know when he has had enough? the crickets are about the size of the width of his head, so should be right size.
