Default Over feeding?

My fat tails normally eat about 10 crickets each, I have 2, sometimes more and one is a pretty good sized adult male and the other is a adult girl who is probably a year and a half, no idea of the boys age, they take down probably 10-15 crickets before they stop and this is every other day.

Am I over feeding or is this just fine?

i have two adults AFT's as well, i usually get about 30 crickets each saturday and they each eat about fifteen within two days of buying them. i do the same thing every week so they aren't too stuffed.
i used to feed them every other day too but they started sleeping more and stopped eating after a while because they were so full. i got really scared until i started feeding them the way i currently do
mine are fine now and very active, usually climbing around and exploring and such.
so i guess the moral of the story is try feeding them every four or five days if they eat that much in one day xD
