lizards.com should give much needed information and the types of lizards as well
lizards and their care.com

He should be fine for a day or 2 without crickets. NEVER feed him insects that you capture outside, because you have no way of knowing what kind of parasites or chemicals they may have come into contact with.
I order my feeder bugs from reptilefood.com as well. I order in large quantities, and they are delivered the next day, no trip to the store necessary. And.....you'd be shocked at how much cheaper it is than buying a few at a time from a pet store.

Whiptails will eat most small insects- collect them from an area free of pesticides.

He should be fine for a few days. I order my crickets on line at www. reptilefood.com. Cheap and they deliver next day. :)
