Darkling beetles?

[chris101]

Heyo, i have mealworms and a lot of them have been pupating, which is cool I want to try and breed them if i can, and i offered my beardie a darkling beetle and hehe ate it without hesitation. Are these ok for him to eat? Ive heard people say the pupae and beetles are ok for them to eat just wondering any replies are helpful thank you

Yes, perfectly fine as a snack.

The crunchy shells can be good for their dental health too.
