Great! Someone in my family has been "worm ranching" for years. We used to joke that they were her pets.

Of course, no one's laughing when we are chowing down on the garden's bounty courtesy of the little critters.
I know you all are joking about eating them but I couldn't pass up

The common earthworm, most notably the red wiggler, also has many of the same protein-rich benefits along with an abundance of omega 3 oil. They’re better chopped into pieces before frying, however, to remove any grainy bits from their digestive systems.

Do let us know how that goes, Blast. After all, it could put you at an advantage if you ever find yourself in a survival situation with only worms for food.
Oh and don't forget:
Many of these creatures are exposed to pesticides, which can have adverse reactions.
Ah, the advantages of raising your own meat--you know exactly what's in it.
