So I understand your skepticism, blue earth worms right, how crazy. Well, I live in Okinawa Japan, and today, bout 20 minutes ago, was digging for worms to go fishing. Well, craziest thing, I found a blue earthworm and 2 black earthworms. I swore it was a snake, as it is super fast but looks just like a worm! I didn't want to touch it, for all I know the dang thing could be poisonous. But I kept scooping it up with my shovel and was finally able to transport it to my coffee can without if falling off. Then went to google of course to do some research, and found this thread. I'll try to take some pictures and maybe even a video of them and post them later.
