Are these European Nightcrawlers or red wigglers? The scientific name says nightcrawlers but I wanted to make sure (Redworms)

We sell redworms in two sizes. The small fetida that are as thin as a pencil lead and measure 1 to 2" long, and also the larger hortensis that grow up to 3.5" long.

We sell the tiny ones also known as "red wigglers" for composting in bulk: Red Composting Worms. They are very tiny but reproduce very fast, can tolerate a wide range of temperatures and soil dryness.

And the larger ones that are also known as a "European nightcrawler" in smaller retail cups: Red Earthworms. We sell those mainly as feeders or bait worms, but we do take special orders for larger volumes to be sold in bulk for composting. They do well with indoor composting cultures. They don't reproduce as fast as the small ones though.

If you'd like to place a special order for the hortensis in bulk, please email or text us at:
