Can someone tell me what kind of worms these are, are they good for your baby beardie, etc? The guys at the reptile store gave them to me for free, I got home and my little one takes one bite and immediately spits them out very dramatically like she’s been poisoned.. lol

They look like black soldier fly larvae, which is safe for beardies to eat... I'd do a little more research about them though, I could be wrong.

They're waxworms and are very fatty. Ok for a treat once in a while. Don't feed the dark mushy ones though, you need to remove those from the rest.

Do they release anything when they’ve been bit? She seems to start chewing and then instantly spit them out and her mouth becomes slimy?

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
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
