And I would just use that indoor formula you mentioned for all of their calcium, especially the possibly gravid female.

As for how many, if they are 2" supers or so, anywhere from 1-4. Crickets will probably be about the same, maybe a few more depending on the size. Hard to say for sure, especially since they came from petco, who are not renowned for their care and feeding of animals. Once you have them established, and eating well, they may skip a day, that's normal. Most people with healthy adults feed them every 2-3 days. I aim at every other day, except with my breeding females. I feed them whenever they will eat. They will go off of food for a few days before laying, sometimes as many as 4 or 5, sometimes only 1 or 2.

okay, i put about 5 supers in there yesterday, but they crawled out of the bowl and scattered, so im not sure if they ate. i put ten dusted crix in there today, they are about medium/small sized for my chameleons, they havent eaten any yet, ill take whatever i can find back out before bed so the crickets dont injure them, is that okay? i know they might not eat for a few days until they adjust...the female looks like an okay weight, but im sure she'll lighten up when she lays, the male needs some weight...they have probably never seen crickets before, all they were ever fed was mealworms at the pet store -.- tiny ones at that...and they had to compete for them...
