Changelings get a bad rap because stallions that get captured by hives can end up getting swarmed to death by the masses of overeager drones who've never actually seen a male of any species if they're not immediately taken to the queen's chambers to be secured.
One changeling drone is easy enough to keep fed, even a dozen if you have a particularly big heart, but a swarm of hundreds will kill you in minutes.
