Ok so I just bought crickets a days ago and a heat wave it yesterday. Today when I went to feed I noticed only one cricket came out. I opened the lid and there were all these little white worms everywhere! I tried to snag the cricket but he had it eaten in no time and now I'm really worried. Is he going to be ok? Could that cricket have been carrying something?
My crickets were all dead but I'm guessing that's more from the heat exposure, it was well over 90 in my apartment yesterday. But are they maggots? I'd attach a pic but the instant I saw that I chucked the bucket in the dumpster. Could it be fruit flies? Unfortunately the apartment has a bit of an issue with fruit flies, something else the landlord never bothered to mention. I've had other reptiles who ate crickets and never once have I seen this happen before. Please help
