So I was looking at a cricket in my tarantula's cage and it was sticking its butt in the ground and come to find out (after researching this) its a female cricket laying eggs, I took it out but should I be worried about my tarantula!?!?! should I change the substrate with fresh new stuff or not worry about it? Please Help!

little pinheads won't hurt anything that can eat an adult cricket. They'll probaby just drown in the waterbowl.

Or die of dehydration.
If you can manage to round up a few, you could feed them up to a good size for T food. They grow very fast, reaching adadulthood in about 7 weeks.
