European Nightcrawlers

[Invisible Snake]

Hi I just wanted to know if European nightcrawlers were safe worms to feed garter snakes..?

And if they are, is or has anyone fed them to their garters?

Thanks in advance for your answers/input.

I believe the answer is no. I think they are red worms. What is the scientific name?

"The European Night Crawler (Eisenia hortensis) is also known as the Belgian Worm, Super Red, Carolina Crawlers and Blue Worms."

Yep, red worms/compost worms.
