Sounds like plenty to me!
At three months old, it is my opinion that you should let them eat as much as they want.
Not too many mealworms though....they can be difficult to digest and cause problems if fed excessively or exclusively.
Sounds like you're doing it right...two is plenty for one day.

I often wonder if you can "overfeed" them it sounds like a legit worry, but in the wild wont they hunt and eat till they are full? I have seen crickets and moths flutter and climb around and they ignore them ... must be full?
