| Other than being yucky to watch, I don't think the worm will do any harm to him. Mine have eaten flies, crickets, regular ants, the odd bug. It's amazing what these guys find appetizing!! The worm isn't going to hurt him, I'm quite sure, tho. |

| My Jo-Jo used to pull them out of the ground like a Robin on a daily basis and they never hurt him. I pulled so many from his tiny mouth (squishy and gross!) but I finally gave up. I don't think they affected him in any way...he's a little goofy but I don't think that had anything to do with the worms! |
