Oh god. I hate to say this but.. I think so. That doesn’t look good. One of the worms Might have had eggs laid in their stomach, then died from it and the eggs hatched... do not feed those to your beardie That could kill him

Thanks.... They are out of control.. Im coming down daily and the surface of the container is teeming so much that you can't see the soil...

The site said they were none preditory and that they are fine as feeders..but 8 think that's wrong as no other feeder has. Come with them and then bred in such vast numbers.... Won't be buying from there again...
