Hi Saluna112,
Earthworms eat decaying vegetable matter. Different species probably have different preferences, but you can get a general sense of their diet by doing an internet search for "earthworm diet", "vermiculture" or "worm composting". For example, here are a couple of relevant web sites

Good luck,
Chris
