Hey guys, I wake up at 6:00 AM and return at around 3:30 PM On weekdays for school. Aside from greens, I'm having trouble Getting a set schedule for him.
When do you have his lights come on? Do you see him before you leave in the morning?
You could have his lights come on at say, 8:30 or 9am & go to 8:30 or 9pm. If you are putting greens in for him in the morning before you go, you could also try getting some phoenix worms to have in the tank also, for him to eat/snack on while you are gone.
Once you get home, you could feed him a couple of more times, before his lights go out. Remember, he needs about 2 hours to digest before his lights go out.
My local pet stores don't sell phoenix worms. I don't know if my parents would agree to ordering them too. I will try, because I need some worms or protein while I am gone.
I think the latest I can turn his lights on is around 7:00, I will see.

I leave mine out in room temperature, other store their in wine fridges, about 50-60 degrees I think.
Or a lunch pail with a freezer pack thingie.
no they come in a little plastic container with stuff that looks like wet sawdust and that is their food, if it starts looking dry, you could give it a very light mist but you generally wont have to do that. I would also order larges the smalls are really small. Larges are a good size even for babies. me personally I would go with the 1000 count large for only 44.90 that includes shipping and it should last 2 weeks, round about, but I also feed 2 beardies and a gecko.
it will all depend on how much your guy will eat, my 6 month old eats 100 or more worms a day, he also will get some crickets some days, or some super worms or horn worms(treats not all the time).
My baby eats between 50-75 worms a day.
