I buy 2000 per every 2 weeks for 26.99 I believe, online (lllreptile.com) Some times I buy 5000 for about 50 dollars also. The 5000 pack usually lasts longer. When I don't have any crickets and my pet stores are out I resort to can o' crickets/minis, zoo meds frozen/dried crickets, some of my Leopard Geckos silkies, a wax worm every 2 days, repcal pellets, veggies, and small freshly molted mealworms and beetles.

I grab tweazers or hand feed them alone. I usually fast my beardy for a day so he will eat a load of veggies when I don't have any crickets.

Don't worry it took me about 3 weeks to get my shipped beardy from san diego to Washington to even touch his greens.

When you put the veg in try playing with it, holding it up and dropping it back in the bowl, when they see it moving it tricks them into thinking its something alive, just an idea, thats what I have to do with the bigger Bearded Dragons, I dont think they knew what veg was till they came to me, they wouldnt entertain it. but slowly they are eating it now, they ravished it this morning which is unusual for them, they must be growing to like it now.
