I thought because the topic is about earthworms I could ask a question about
them. Well here it is.

I am now just starting to try to feed my Natives earthworms. When I go out
and dig up a whole hand full they are all a dark green color. I am worried
about feeding them to my Natives. I just went out today and I have about 20
of them in a Tupperware container in oats. When they eat the oats do you
think the green will go away if it is the food they are eating that is
making them green?

Thank you,
