Should I get a beardie If i cant have crickets breed in my appt?

Main concern is the economic one.
Ive heard beardies can eat up to 100 crix a day or more, at my local pet store thats around ~$12.
Thats $70 + a week on feeding a lizard!!

The reason I cant breed and raise feeder crix in my appt is because its so small and I wont be able to handle the chirping, itll drive me crazy. I do have a basement that im considering to use as a possible place to breed them but people in the building go there every now and then and im not sure how they would feel about crickets being grown (might feel grossed out, etc)


If I get one id would deffinetly be a baby, theres no way I want an adult one i want to raise my own.
I found such a great deal for a baby! I want to pick her up but Im not sure if I can handle her feeding


Maybe Dubia cockroaches but even then id be unsure about having them in the appt...
