I have heard that meal worms should only be fed once or twice a week because of their fat content, but it's good to give a couple of crickets a day. Try the link below though. The modified Taronga Zoo Diets should say how much to feed each day. (Generally I would say ask the boards, but only one or two people seem to be answering these days :( ). As for nipping, they will let you know when they don't want to do something, and I've noticed that my boys don't defiantly nip like that anymore, at least not as much. my guess is that she is in her "teenager" months. And the toe biting is generally thought to be love nips, saying "pay attention to me!" It sounds like she's doing pretty good, especially if they don't hurt. Good luck!
