Hello, so yesterday I went to feed my bearded dragon his crickets and found this bug within the box. Does anyone know what this is? I got such a fright as I didn't expect to see it at all! There was also a pale beige spider but I didn't manage to get a photo of that. I buy my crickets from pets at home (UK) (probably not the most economical option, I know :( ). I didn't feed him any of the crickets that were in that box, I've had 2 beardies and never had this problem before! I'm going to return the box to the store today!

Crickets are well known for coming with parasite loads that can lead to other bugs emerging with them, and the farms that breed them often have other bugs that live with the crickets. It's not pleasant, but it is fairly normal.

Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
