Oh...another note. Don't get your earth worms from a bait store. Dig them up fresh where you know where they came from. I did a float one time on worm dirt from a bait shop and it was crawling with all kinds of nasties. TONS of tape worm eggs, round worms, hook worms, pin worms...you name it... and some other little nasties that I never could ID...some kinda of protazoa I think. They looked like little coffee beans. I'm guessing that the worm farmers use some kind of fecal compost in their worm beds. They should check their animals lol. Crickets from the bait store seem to be ok. They all get them from the same places the petstores do I think. They come in the same boxes anyway. I'm also sure that bait stores vary on the nastyness of worms but the one box I checked out several years ago would have made a great science project. hmm the irony ...worms with worms.
