If you are feeding your henkeli crickets, then yes. Henkeli I would expect an adult henkeli to eat approximately 6 crickets every other day, perhaps more, but not much less.

My 6.5-8inch subadults are eating about 3-5 adult crickets a night...
Their parents are not eating 3-5 crickets a week...
The younger ones are in the middle of a growth spurt and their metablism is sky high...
The adults prefer fewer large prey items...2-3 adult dubia roaches a week is normal for individuals of my 2.2. Sometimes they fast and dont eat for a while...I think this can be attributed to getting 'bored' of the roaches though.
I watched my male courting the nonreceptive female tonight...it was odd because he started about 5 minutes before the lights went out...his tail started twitching feverishly as he started to approach her...when he nudged her, she let out a load shrilll...She is already gravid by him, thats why shes not receptive...
