beardie ate a dermestid larvae by accident - will he be ok?

Still a newbie worrying I got Mojo, my 4 (I think) month old dragon on the 19th of July all happy and healthy from the reptile shop near by.

Mojo ate a Dermestid Larvae thingy by accident. I know that they are there to eat dead bugs and stuff, but one went up the black tube from the cricket pen as when I tapped it in the viv, one came out and Mojo ate it. Will she be ok?

She should be fine. I don't know those to be toxic. Keep an eye on her but I doubt there will be any complications from eating a Dermestid beetle. Cooper ate a box elder once and I freaked out, but he was fine.

Yes, he will be fine...I've had several dragons scarf them down and they looked for more.

Ok, thanks for the help. I'll try the make sure they don't usually come out but Mojo seems to be fine after that

Honestly, if I end up with one or two in a feeder batch... just more feeders. I've always let Taz eat them, and they've never hurt him....
