Depending on what kind it is (Lumbricus for example), it might actually be flat. :D

What Stefan doesn't know, isn't worth knowing! His general knowledge is second to none!

Thanks, I appreciate it. :D Then again, anybody who has ever caught worms for bait knows that those really big worms have flat tails. ;)

Who was it that said that I "know some weird stuff"? :D edit: I just looked it up. It was you, James. :D Does the term "postmortem lividity" ring a bell?

I have seen nightcrawlers flatten their tails out on a regualr basis. not unusual for that to happen

thanks all!

@ snakeluvr...they can flatten quite a bit indeed! and they can reach very nice sizes! And, to make things even better, they have a Ca:P (calcium : phosporus) of 1:1!!! very good for bone development!

I ran across some huge earthworms in Kansas.....average around a foot long, was riding with my stepdad at night (he's a police officer) and thought I saw a small snake on the road, went back and it was a big worm...I went to pick it up, I have never seena a worm spaz out like that!!!!! I'm used to normal nightcrawlers, but these worms were almost spastic when you touch them!! I know the red siders there chow down on them!!!
