I saw it!

I am going to have nightmares tonight...

Ugh seriously, especially after that picture Shelly posted.
I feel like I'm going to be sick.

They have some darn near that size in San Louis Obisbo, CA. We measured and they were all around a foot without stretching them.

And thank you again for re-posting the picture so that it's on both pages. Wouldn't want anyone to miss it!

Too funny...you have me cracking up. I think it's just a big nightcrawler. I have the holes all around the yard and in each hole is a stick or a leaf or a stem of some sort making or closing off the entrance to the tunnel. I have them all over the yard and I think if they were the giant one in Shelley's picture I would have seen them before this.
Something I forgot to say there are small red wigglers around every hole, like they are a nursery of a sort. I collect great worms from Bob's poop pile every other day. Nothin I like better than digging in Bob's poop. eee ha

I feel sick... seriously.
I already don't walk in my backyard barefoot...but I might have to put on my rain boots from now on.

Think of the size of fish you could catch with that big ugly beast

 

[stells]

OMG... you guys have some freaky worms... i'l stick with my little piddly earthwroms i get here...

 

[Stazz]

HOLY HOLY HOOLLLLLLLY SMOKES !!!! I would literally, more than likely, have a small to medium stroke if I saw that come out the grass. I dnt do worms, not even itty bitty tiny ones...I just don't, LOL! Why I could not have a carnivorous turtle ! My goodness, Maggie, you sure have some experiences living where you do, rabid coons and all !

It's a great place to live...keeps me entertained all the time

 

[Stazz]

It sounds like a fantastic place to live, apart from giant creepy crawlies But its great to be kept entertained ! Not much happening here in Dubai hahaha....camels maybe? haha. They ARE scary. When my mom was visiting recently, we went for an hour camel ride - I do not feel comfortable with a camel. They're super scary. I was petrified for the whole hour, and our bedouin guide did not speak english, which was not fun, as he would not tell us when he was stopping for a break, and suddenly our camels jerk down to let us off, my heart skip many beats on that adventure!
