I'm fairly sure I know what you're talking about because I've gotten a number of the small (black?) beetles and very few small centipede type worms too.
The small beetles are nasty buggers that can fly well, I've had to track down 3 of them so far from them just jumping right out of the tank I had the crickets in.
I don't know what they are though. They are annoying though
If they turn into black beatles then they must be the larvi of the beatles.
p
If they turn into black beatles, I want to hear them play!
crickets lay eggs that hach out cricketsThere's no such thing as cricket larvi crickets hatch out crickets.
if the black centipede looking things are dead they are probably dead meal or superworms which are usually raised in the same facilities as crickets , both meal and superworms turn into weired looking grubs that turn into small beetles which in turn create more meal/super worms do the beatles look like this ? the pictures are of tenebrio beatles the parent/ adult form of meal worm / superworms and their beatles are not much differentJust curious if anyone knows what the worms/beetles are that always seem to come with the crickets I order. Funky looking little worms that turn into small black beetles. I'll take a photo if need be, but I am sure someone knows what I am talking about.
Thanks for telling me! i was getting concerned about them.The worms I got with the crickets were cricket larvi and perfectly safe for the chameleon and he loves them.

Beatles are sometimes included as they clean up the bottom of the cricket box by eating all the shed carcasses and dead crickets etc. They are also perfectly safe to feed to chameleons.
