    and if you get them from a pet store, Change witch one you go too if possible, If you breed I would kill all the crixs and order some more.. just to be safe.. (I might be getting outa hand though)

    do you have flies in your home or that could get to the crickets? There was an infestation of some sort and I wouldn't feed until i was sure what is going on as others may be infected as well and those too may beat from inside your reptile as well. I would start with a new batch. did the pet store by chance mix worms with crickets? Inquire and let us know.

    could be some kind of parasite... i would inform the pet store... and take your dragon and a fresh stool sample to the vets so it can get tested for parasites...
