Okay so my cham is pretty big (pic on my albums) and he only eats like 2 crickets a day and poops every other day and its a pretty big poop is he okay?
 
My cham seems about the same size male veiled about 5 months old.. he eats 10 crickets a day or so with wax worms meal worms Hornworms silk worms occasionally. Tried other foods?
 
He should be eating a bit more than that. I fed mine everyday at 5 months old, but about 5 per day.
You can cut to every other day at 5 months, that would mean eating about 10 every 2 days. A little less is no problem. How long has he only eaten 2 per day? And maybe your crickets are too big for him?

Really? My guy has no problem wolfin ten a day. Course he may not quite be 5 months.. am i over feeding a bit?
 
well i think its cause i didnt have a uvb and now that i got one i got home and there were no more crickets which means he ate 6 crickets :D

Actually, I did mix some other food in there too.........you are not over feeding yet, but in a couple of months he will probably cut down a bit himself. It does depend a lot on the size of insects of course, my guy likes them bigger than my girl likes them at the same age.
 
Love seeing good conclusions :)
And thanks again David :). I should copy and paste that phrase I say It so often lol
