Baby beardie feeding schedule

Was wondering what’s the recommended feeding schedule for a baby beardie? The store I got him from had him on a morning/evening feeding schedule. Should I stay with that or go to maybe 3 times a day? He’s just starting to eat after the first 3 days of adjusting so not in any hurry to change his schedule now but just wanted some input for future reference.

I fed mine a salad and some dubias in the morning and offered some more dubias later in the day if he was still hungry but it was less than I gave him in the morning. I would just stick to his usual schedule because consistency is important to keep them from being stressed.

Twice a day is plenty. I like to do bugs every other day. Greens in between. All day greens. Once a day bugs.

Right now he needs regular feeding. 3 times a day for the very young and as he moves into being a juvenile that should slow down to once a day.
