I fed my chameleon about 15 crickets this morning then later on I started to clean my cricket bin. I came across these little worms in there. Now Im really worried they are dangerous, and I'm worried because Malibu has already eaten most of the crickets I put in. I took out the rest of the crickets from his enclosure that he hadn't eaten yet, there were only 3 or 4 left. Here is a picture of the worms.
I beleive they may be fruit fly larvae. If this is the case, are they dangerous/parasitic ? Am I going to have to start from scratch on my cricket bin? What should I do about my chameleon already eating the crickets from the bin. There were only a few dead crickets in the bin that I could see. My crickets seem to be doing fine. I'm on edge worrying about my boy
Thanks to any replies.
I had to break out my GoPro macro mod lens in order to get the shot of the worms since they are so tiny, my iPhone couldnt focus that close up.
