Black bugs with mealworms

Status
Not open for further replies.
Just recently bought my beardie a container of mealworms as a treat. I started feeding him some and I noticed a small bug/larvae looking thing. To me it looks like a fuzzy little Caterpillar or a pupae. I was wondering what it is and if anyone has experienced this. I have only found one so far but it is a rather large count..Thanks in advance I'm trying to attach some pics ATM..

It looks like either a mealworm pupa or maybe a dermestid beetle pupa that may have been part of a cleaner crew. It shouldn't pose any harm.

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
