Overwhelmed with insects

We all know (hopefully) that bearded dragons need to eat certain types of gut filled food. Especially when they are babies and juveniles. I know what to feed in terms of greens, but there are so many bugs out there bearded dragons can eat. I know the ones they can and can't and there is a lot they can. But where I live crickets are the easiest thing to buy and breed. Its sort of the only thing I can find close by. But, I could learn how to care for some other type of insect like superworms, mealworms, so on. But that would be difficult because then if I run out I would need to drive an hour and a half away to get more. So, my question is should I stick with the stuff I know like crickets or try for something else?

You can always order dubias horn worms super worms etc on line- I order from Dubiaroaches.com- you can google dubias and check other websites as well - I like and and have had good luck from dubiaroaches.com-- I would stay away from roachking.com - they send their roaches loose in a box - they are double boxed and the second box they come loose - I made the mistake and I had roaches everywhere when I opened the box --

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
