So I know this is going to vary as I have read through a lot of the posts on the exact amount/type of food for chams.
Plan on getting a mostly fullgrown male vield. How many crickets should he be eating a day? (Let's just start with the simplest food source and I'll ask the breeder but outside info helps too) I've owned so many reptiles but these chams are so new to me! (Previous state I lived in they were illegal) so I know the basics just wanted some advice on an approximate amount (judging by the crickets I can take a guess at how many worms/roaches). Have vitimins w/d3 and will get a calcium without D3. Maybe dust every other week it seems like. But can they or will they overeat? How do you know when its too much or too little?
 
Welcome to the forums. As far as feeding goes it will mainly depend on his size. I feed healthy nearly grown male veileds every other day, 6 to 10 feeders depending on the size and type of feeder. I highly recommend a large variety of feeders. Attached below is my block for new keepers. Post pictures of your guy when you get him.

Thanks! Hopefully we can aquire a nice decent sized male. This definitely gives me more of an idea on how much. I will pick up a ton of different feeders at the rep expo at the end of march. The pet store I work at, we have a breeding colony of roaches too. I will totally post pictures when we get him! I have been going crazy collecting supplies.
