Breeding Earthworms

I didn't know where to post this so I posted it here. Anyone who has had any luck in breeding earthworms, or know how to do?

I have only bred redworms, they are fairly easy. I am sure a simple search of the web will get some decent hits, you can also try the feeders forum.

There's a guy advertising in classifieds (amphibians) for information leading to the purchase of a huge ABF for exhibition in an Aussie zoo. Anybody know anybody with such a beast?

You can easily breed them using the breeding kit sold at walmart. It's in the hunting/fishing dep't. It is a box of substrate that they live and breed in. my friends used to do that and sell the resulting offspring as fishing bait. just make sure that you start off with healthy worms; some walmarts sell dyed live onjes for bait, and you don't want that. But breeding your own has to be healthier than buying them from a bait shop, who knows what they raised theirs in!
