hello,

i had my 14" juvie male beardy outside getting some sunshine today. i was letting him chill in the grass when he suddenly snatched up some type of dark colored insect, chomped a couple times, and down the hatch before i could get to him!

i'm assuming it wasn't toxic to him. it was about 4 hrs ago, and he still seems fine. it caught me off guard though! he likes to be outside and roam in the grass. it's hard to eliminate all the bugs he could eat. i live in florida and we have lots of them :0)

anyone else had this happen? any thoughts on possible repercussions? parasites? ect? thanks...
