Food help?

I am getting a 10" flapneck chameleon who eats medium sized crickets. How long will 200 crickets last him? Also when do I need to switch him to large crickets?

My flapneck eats about 10-12 medium size a day - but she really likes blue bottle flies- (I get them from mantisplace.com) and if I give her them I only give her two or three- she's getting to be about 6 months old and my other chameleons started not eating as much as they got older- she also likes silkworms -
If you start buying yours large they might die before you can feed them all -
I can't really tell you how long it will take - mines not 10 inches. She's not ready for the big ones yet.
