Amount of Phoenix Worms or Dubia Roaches

[CursedFire]

Hi there,

I've been feeding my geckos superworms recently, as they've been the easiest thing for me to get my hands on, but I was curious about trying either phoenix worms or dubia roaches because they're much healthier options.

Currently my geckos eat about 3 superworms every other day.

About how many could I expect them to eat of phoenix worms or dubia roaches? I know gecko appetites vary a lot though, I just want some sort of idea of what to expect. I want to be able to compare the prices of the two options and see how long they'll last and how many to order, so I need some sort of idea of how many they'd eat a week.

Thanks!

It depends on how old and large your gecko is, younger animals are going to eat more of course. i feed my adult male 6-8 dubia roaches every two days(or every other day some weeks).
