The worms we have here under leaves, logs, rocks, down in the soil a bit are also okay. It's where Winnie came from besides. The only worms I've collected and give to her are the ones I've gone right outside the Visitor Center and gathered up. They come little, big, bigger. All sizes, but they're what I've always just called "worms." The skinnier smaller ones seem to be different than the larger ones. But what do I know? I've no idea even what a red wiggler is.

I'll prolly do the Wal-Mart worms for Peepers and Jeepers. But NOT the nightcrawlers since I've read they can come out either end; the back end killing the snakes. I'll get what we call angle (short for "angler," as in fishing person) worms. The smaller ones. It will take more at a feeding but I'm not going to risk the live o'MY kids!
