    Thanks every one for your replies. Heather since you are located in Canada are your night crawlers from there? Sherry and Joshua do you know what kind of night crawlers you have? From what information I have read there are three main types African, from the U.S. and from Canada that are available. They all need specific care. I bought some from Petco in Seattle but have no idea where they originated from. FROG gladly ate them. Thanks Thumper for you input too. I know about red wrigglers. FROG totally rejected them because of their taste. Did you get your worms at Petco? I noticed you are in the Pacific Northwest.

    Yep, down south of you in Oregon Got mine from Petsmart. Our Petco SHOULD have them (when reading the list of things on the feeder fridge) but they never do, bleh. :O

    I have the same problem at the Petco store here in Juneau. They mention them on the list on the frig since they opened but I have never seen them there. Guess I'll have to wait when I take a trip to Seattle this fall. The ones I got from Petco in Seattle this spring were real in good shape. I chopped up romaine lettuce, carrot and another vegtable I can't remember. I don't know if they ate any of that or not as Frog ate the night crawlers up in about 2 weeks. FROG ate like I would eat a T-bone steak.

    Earthworms in North America are actually invasive and were brought here by European settlers. There is no evidence to suggest that earthworms existed here before then. The kind that you want to look for are Lumbricus Terrestris or 'Canadian Night crawler', 'Vitalis', Dew Worm' etc.
