Overeating?

Hi guys!
Again, I am a new owner of a little male T.Deremensis cham named Axel. I believe him to be about one year old.

Axel is definitely a healthy eater and can be a good drinker if I shower him until he starts to take the water. I was wondering what your thoughts are on overeating?

He seems to be eating a lot more lately. I usually give him about 6-10 large/medium crickets a day, and a dubia once or twice a week (still getting used to the whole roach thing ☺ ). I do free range feed him, about 10 crickets in the morning, and he would leave a few around at the end of the day. I started giving him more because he was no longer leaving any crickets in his cage. He does like to walk and climb around a lot, so I was thinking the exercise could be making him want to eat more. This week he has been eating about 15 or more crickets a day; (20 yesterday- a mix of mostly mediums). Is that too much? Any thoughts on over feeding?

Also he wants nothing to do with any type of worm. I am still trying a variety, but I am yet to get any worm action. :p:p
