Received my order of dubias and noticed some black hard shell looking beetles. What are these? Clean up bugs? There was probably 200 of these with my order here's a picture

Also there are some bigger kind of hairy looking beatle/Roach looking things I will try to get a picture of one of them . Any idea what these are?

The beetle looks it be some type of darkling beetle, probably cleaners from wherever you got the roaches. The fuzzy one (are they wormy looking?) might be dermestid larvae.

this is the fuzzy hairy sucker here. I'm disappointed In my order of dubias. I ordered 500 medium. Got about 200 dubias and 300 worms,Beatles,and fuzzy worm/Beatles. If you breed dubias than I'm sure they are the way to go but as far as just purchasing them they are expensive and it seems you never quite get what you pay for. I don't want to breed any feeders so I think crickets are the way for me and just deal with the smell,escapes, hiding in the Viv. With crickets I actually pop them in the freezer for 30 second to a minute to dumb them down for my dragon so none get away and hide.

I don't know where you are, but if you're near northern California, dubideli.com is great! I've had three orders of 200 or more from them, and I've been super pleased with my orders. My first two orders I had for more than 2 months each because my beardie was sorta brumating and not eating a lot. I had no dead ones upon arrival and only had 3-4 die over the course of two months of less than stellar roach husbandry.

Especially compared to Petco crickets where they'd be dying off within a day, I love them.

Looks like a dermestid larvae

Maybe complain about the shipment? Most places ship overage to ensure you get what you pay for.

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
