I found huge grubs in my backyard that I had dug-up doing yardwork. Big fat white grubs with blackish heads.

I fed them to only one dragon as a test. Bad decision... within no time at all:
The dragon acquired parasites and it was very difficult to get it under control. Dragon was pooping blood.

I house all my dragons separate and Im a stickler about husbandry.

Also:
I had a female (huge healthy and ravenous girl) that I fed live caught anoles. Once again, very bad parasite and she actually died after vet treatments bills etc.

Never feed anything live-caught/wild.

You will regret it.
