I was feeding every day at 7 months and did not cut back until everyother until about 13 months. but that was just me. I would say you are feeding the right amount of feeders. If he is thriving on that schedule, then I would just keep it the way you have it and you are good to go when he gets oldeer and don't have to change anything. I feed about 6-8 feeders every other day but I would be feeding large crickets at this point. I don't feed Dubia so you willhave to judge the size on that one. My panther is almost 2 yrs old.

WHen my male hit 7 months, he drastically reduced his food intake (on his own). Id go a day and there would still be crickets in his cup. So, I started feeding him every other day about 5-10 medium to large crickets and he is doing just fine.
Like carol said, if your guy is still eating all that food, then no worries.
My guy simple decided he wasn't hungry all the time.

See thats the same with mine i have realized that by the end of the day there was still some crickets n mayb a dubia in there but other days either there all gone or just one left.
I think im going to see how this week goes by and see.if its time to cut his feeding down.
Thanks you guys

Id drop the waxworms, and add in more variety of a better sort (silkworms, butterworms, terrestrial isopods, hornworms, locust, blue bottles...)
watch the fat pads on his head, and if they buldge greatly you'll know to cut back
