Undigested black soldier fly larvae in poop. His lights and temps are great. He basks after eating and moves around cage as he needs. What the heck would cause this???

He is in a 4x2x2 Zen. 150w basking plus 75 basking. Reptisun t5 10.0 mounted inside. His hot side is about 100 ambient is 80ish and cool side in 70ish all measured with an infrared temp gun. The BSFL are added to his greens.

That happens. Especially when they get excited and eat a bunch of them quickly. If they aren't chewed well they tend to pass through without being fully digested. It isn't problematic, but offering them one at a time or more slowly can encourage better chewing/more effective digestion.
