I'm not sure if they will be all right as I would be out all day tomorrow
with them. I think they are bigger than grindels.

Are white worms similar in size to grindel worms (bigger) or walter worms
(smaller)?

If they are bigger than the walters (more the size of vinegar eels), could
you bring a starter culture to the meeting?  I've already got several tubs
of redworms behind the garage...what's one more container, right?
