eating too many dubia?

[ash0587]

I just got my dubia nymphs yesterday and I'm wondering if I'm feeding too many. I know many people on here say their dragons eat 8-10 and are done. yesterday yoshi ate 40! today I gave her 20 so far but I'm sure if I put more in there she'll go crazy and eat 20 more. just want to make sure its ok to feed that many a day.
thanks!

All depends on size of dragon and dubia. My adult will eat 5-10 LARGE nymphs. Your baby, may eat 40 very small nymphs.

some of the nymphs I have are definitely tiny so I figured that may be why she was eating so many, but a few of the nymphs I gave her were pushing the "no bigger than the size between the eyes rule".
thanks for the help, I just don't want her to end up getting sick from over eating.

General rule: Put a lot of dubia in a seperate container like a rubbermaid or sterolite. Put her in there, let her eat as much as she wants for 15 min. Here is a pic of when mine was a baby eating crickets.

same here i get the medium sized nymphs which are about 1/2" to 1" big. the thing is he eats around 15 of these and he's only about 15" long. is that to much. i also get the biggest mediums ones they have if that makes sense? lol
