Furry grubs in insect tubs??

[Ceilli3]

Hi does anyone know if I can feed these to my chameleon? I think mine may have eaten one as it was in the cricket keeper tube when I shook it out into the calcium tub. I forgot to take it out (I forget things really quickly sometimes as have ME & get mental exhaustion/confusion). Now I'm worrying about whether it was safe for her to eat-I normally leave them in the cricket keeper!

My telepathy is telling me those furry grubs is the beetle larvae,do they look like this ?

If u can post a pic that will be much better than my six sense.

Isn't that just a clean up crew that they put in with crickets to eat the dead ones?

They are usually just a clean up crew. They eat the dead vex and the crx poop. I'm not sure if u can feed them to ur Cham but bc they eat the dead stuff I wouldn't

Crx not vex

Thnx she's already eaten one by mistake I'm afraid, hope it won't hurt her

It won't hurt her they just have little nutritional value in my opinion not a staple feeder

Thnx a relief to know that-I'll make sure they're left in with the crickets & lcusts in future though!

Sometimes the cricket breeders will have a few inside the batch,when the larvae grown into little beetle ,it can fly,my veiled use to eat them with no problem.
Im glad my telepathy sense is connecting correctly.
