baby feeding

[whysoez420]

I feed my baby veiled 15-20 crickets a day. Is that an appropriate amount?

Assuming they are the small pinhead size that should be O.K. I would feed as many as he will eat in a few minutes and then wait until later and feed a few more. (This would usually end up being about 15 to 20 in my case.)

Rule of thumb w/ my other lizards is feed as many as they'll eat in 15 minutes.

Babies need to eat as much as they can to help them grow.

It is very normal for a baby that age to eat that many bugs.

Most people feed babies 2 times a day, and let them eat all they can consume in about 5 minutes each time.
