Ok i was wondering what amount people typically order for a cham around the age of mine hes now eatting 10-11 1/4in crickets a day.So i figured i get 1000 but then i didnt know if they would last 3months cuz 10x30=300month times 3months would be 900 crickets.. but i was worried they wouldnt last...
how big of a cricket order for 4month veiled.

Don't feed late afternoon or evenings. They need plenty of time under the lights to digest their food. He should be eating tons at his age.

Wouldn't the crickets get big too fast if you ordered that many for a 4 month Cham?

And make sure to remove dead crickets and clean the container very regularly or it will get very smelly very fast. I use a small shop vac that is dedicated to that purpose only.
I also use paper towel rolls with all paper towel removed in the cricket tub- this makes it real easy to get them in the bag when you are dusting them with supplements - which I use even though I gutload the crickets with fresh veggies and a dry mix also.
