Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

I was wondering if anybody knew some good earthworm background research sites.

Hi,

You can find lots more using a google search on “earthworm research”

Have fun with this project!

Thanks!

I was also wondering if you knew any good diets for earthworms.

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
