I find lots of tiny earthworms in the garden. Can i feed these to my dwarf puffers. If so how do i clean the insides of the worm. We dont use pesticides or weed killer's so nothing bad in garden. Sandra

Great food! I don't clean them out.

I soak "olivias" earthworms for a short time in cool water (20-30 min).

Does that make them poop?

I don't know if it's poop or not, but they sometimes expel quite a bit of silty dirt looking stuff
This seems to be the case with yard worms - the ones sold as bait tend to be cleaner

Yep to walmart but check the container so you don't end up buying dead worms! I also notice that if I give Roger a piece of one, it poops when it hits the saltwater XP
