I found this bug in with my dubias today, does anyone know what it is? It almost looks like a dubia without a shell but I'm not sure... When I picked it up it's back end wiggled a bit so it was alive but didn't seem able to move it's legs. I'm worried that I got some weird bug mixed in with my roaches, any help would be great, thanks!

That's a pupa. The next stage will be a beetle. It could be either a mealworm or superworm beetle or a cleaner beetle that some put in with dubia roaches.. Hard to say which until it hatches out.

It's not a pest, just a beetle larva. Not harmful and will eventually morph into a cleaner crew beetle.

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
