Cicadas are going to be around this summer. Anybody ever feed these to your beardies?

I though about feeding a few and just read on the BTS forum someone ask about them. Does anybody know if they would cause problems?

I fed a few of them last year right out of the shell. They are still pretty soft. They gobbled them up and I noticed no problems. I am a little nervous feeding bugs from outside especially ones that burrow in the ground, with weed controllers and such. I don't know if they are affected by those after they leave their shell or not.
