Your crickets will die off pretty quickly I would get a 10 gallon tank ready for the roaches w/ some dubia food which you can order w/ the roaches -- currently dubia roaches is not shipping but you can get them from reptilianarts.com I would order like 200 at a time -- they will fit in the 10 gallon aquarium ---

Ok I take it you have a big enough container for them -- thats a lot--- you want him eating greens too -- that will slow down once hes a year old or so --- he should get cut down to 2-3 times per week -- mine only eats about 3-4 large roaches now but he is also fed silk worms and salad and worms

Hi there, I just wanted to say that he/she is looking good and it sounds like you're doing a good job handling everything, esp. the hassle of getting live food. 
Try to avoid the freeze dried crickets , use only a few at a time and be sure he's well hydrated. BTW if you'd like to post a couple pics of him with tail arched up high like in this article I can probably tell you the gender.

You cannot rely on those chain stores for your food supply - I posted websites for you to order on line -- did you get dubia roaches? Is he eating salads now? Have you fed him any worms like silk or small super or BSFL --

He'll be O.K, he's not a baby anymore and between the freeze dried crickets and salad he'll be fine. You can also try a little scrambled egg, microwave for a minute, let cool and offer a bit at a time. Most beardies will eat some but don't give him the entire thing, it's rich and can give them a slight case of the runs. [ sometimes ] . But no need to worry, he'll be fine eating like that for a week or longer if need be. Another option is a bait store, you can check for waxworms + mealworms.
