Yes they do, and grow in a cocoon. Although worms are hermaphrodite (having both sets of sex organs in the clitellum) they cannot impregnate themselves. Two worms line up head to tail and pass sperm to each others spermathecae, sperm sacs. A slime tube forms over the clitellum (saddle), dries out and fills with fluid. As the worm wriggles out of the shrinking tube 5-6 eggs and sperm are deposited in it. The tube closes to form a cocoon from which tiny fully functioning worms emerge some time later. Worm cocoons can lie dormant for a year if the soil conditions are not right to support the baby worms. All worms that are cut in half make 2 dead halves of a worm. It is a myth that both halves survive. They might take a while to die but die they do.
A regular chicken egg can approximately hold around 4 lbs. Not much, but it is depending on the chicken and it's health about how the egg shell will produce. Some chickens don't get enough rocks or egg shells to eat and they may lay an egg without a shell. Happened with me before and I learned that they need to eat small rocks and/or crushed egg shells that were heated. If they get enough of these, the shell will come out perfect. :) Hope this helps...
birds eat worms and so do some people (watch How to Eat Fried Worms) Fish also eat worms. Platypus eat worms larvae and shrimp. Moles and shrews eat worms.
egg weaknesses are the shells because they are very fragile and weak. strengths are the shape, and shell.
A cat can eat a meal worm with out any risk to the health of the animal. People eat meal worms. Meal worms are a source of protein.
Yes, turkeys do eat mice... I just watched my pet turkey eat a mouse. If your cats will not keep them away, a pet turkey will!!
A toddler should not be allowed to eat egg shells as the shells will scratch the throat.

Yes, most definitely. I was reading about this in a library, went to check the same... what kinda diets I could use for my turtle... crushed egg shells was definitely there... along with fresh tomatoes and lettuce and strawberries and so on...
Because there is nothing inside to eat.
Some species of snail certainly will if they get the chance.
Yes! We consume 4 eggs everyday and toss the shells onto the scraps the pigs eat and they love them. Has to be a great source of calcium.
The same reason you don't, They don't like them

Worms get their food from the ground and they eat a wide variety of foods, such as organic materials, dirt, rotting and decaying materials, manure, and leaves. At worm farms worms are mostly fed with rotting vegetables, fruits, egg shells, coffee grounds, tea leaves, pieces of paper and box, and the list goes on and on. And they should be given meat and dairy products in small quantities and should not be fed on processed food.
Grasshopper mice eat insects, worms, scorpions, snakes, and other mice.
Yes. The shells must be ground or pulverized enough for the chickens to swallow them. Shells provide an important source of calcium. Calcium is necessary for egg production and health egg shells.
