I think you're right Merlin. Ooh, how about the Beetle Hunter! She could have her own tv show and talk in a funny accent too!

Gee thanks guys  I put the second escapee in with the first one and if they make baby supers fine (even though I hate super worms). However at the moment all the Leopard Geckos are refusing to eat supers for some reason  I think I have all the supers accounted for finally (ewwwww).

You never know...8_0 the females may be lying dead somewhere because they just finished laying a thousand eggs in warm places. The males ofcoarse could be searching for more females.

Good thing it's in the basement and I live on the second floor  Is there a way to tell the difference between the males and the females? The second beetle I caught was larger and darker then the first and it was in a warm place and was kinda sluggish *gathers cleaning supplies to disinfect the area and kill all eggs*

Wow that is sooo scary! One day in the summer I discovered a regular small mealworm beetle in my Leopard Geckos tank and that grossed me out, so I can't even imagine finding a giant beetle...let alone two. If you find eggs though, I wouldn't try to handle it on your own...because its a job for the professionals. My suggestion is nexttime when refilling your food dished to do it over an enclosed area that way anything that falls will just get caught in the enclosed area instead of dun dun dun...somewhere else.
