African nightcrawler babies

13 years ago

I've had this squirm of 500 E. eugeniae for just over 3 weeks. Even though I did not see them, it's very likely there were cocoons already in the bedding the worms were packed in. Some of these are already over an inch long and were definitely not born today, but tonight is the first time I've seen them against the glass. I've counted at least a dozen. Here's a 1 minute video of the cute little 'crawlers.

Apparently any post that doesn't get a response stays at the top of the list. So this should knock it off the perch and allow it to sink into the abyss.

I'd bet that alot of us watched the video but had no constructive comment to post... My own thought was "wow...those are great!!" but that's not worth a full post...

Now that I blew a few bubbles into the mix, I'll let it sink..lol
