Can I overfeed? How many crickets or silkworms?

[Bonginator]

I have a 4.5 month old panther that I just got.

He is readily taking crickets and silkworms. Since I have more crickets than silks until the silkworm colony gets going, how many crickets a day should I let this guy have. He seems to eat all that he can find.

Right now, he is eating 10-15 crickets a day and 2 silkworms.

Question 1. Can you overfeed a Cham?

Question 2. If so, how many would be recommended for a growing sub adult of that age?

Hi, at 4.5 months feed the little piggie as much as he wants in a 15-30 minute feeding session. Once he hits around 1 1/2 - 2 yrs old you will want to tone him down. The goal is to keep him trim. Obesity leads to edema.
