LOL, it comes from their food. Crickets, worms, and veggies can all carry Coccidia. Usually dragons do not have an outbreak of Coccidia unless they are stressed by something. Treatment is a pain in the behind. Albon and lots of it. Another key is strict cleaning. Have to use newspaper as a substrate and change it every time you see poop. Best to feed in a seperate container. Throw the crickets that aren't eaten out, not back into the cricket container. It is a very pesky parasite. That is hard to get rid of. You usually don't totally get rid of it, you knock it back down to acceptable levels and fix the stress causer.
