All the worms in my worm farm died with green stuff exploding from their bodies!?
I’ve recenelty had nearly all the worms die in two worm farms, and all the worms had a bulging green bit in the middle of their bodies which later explodes, splitting them in two. I have a few theories as to why this happened, such as pesticide on the vege scraps which poisoned them, or perhaps too much food added at once and the farm became anaerobic, or even too much cabbage added at once (there was a lot of cabbage)
Has anyone had this experience and/or know what caused this to happen? I appreciate any information you can provide.
Thanks!
It is possible they were poisoned. I’m assuming that these are vegeatble scraps from vegetables you’ve eaten. If you cleaned or washed off the scraps first, it might help.
However, how warm is the worm farm. If it gets too warm, this will kill the worms, and the bacteria in their stomachs will cause the stomach to swell as the bacteria breaks them down, creating gasses, which will eventually cause the stomachs to rupture.
This is the only thing I know of that would cause worms to explode.
Good luck.

Tips on starting a worm farm?
I want to start a worm farm this summer.
How do I build a farm using a medium sized plastic container?
What do I feed the worms?
What kind of worms do I get? Are earthworms good? I heard red wrigglers are. If you suggest, them-then where do I buy them or find them cheap?
If I put them in my room…do they smell bad? Or should I keep them in our garage?
Be careful about keeping it too wet. I made a worm farm a few weeks ago, and this morning I found a few worms on my kitchen floor. Yuck! I’m pretty sure I over-watered it!
Anyways, I used a set of plastic drawers, cut out a rectangle from the bottom with a box cutter, super glued/duct taped screen to the holes, and added some worms, shredded newspaper, coffee grounds, tea bags, and fruit/veggies. I got the worms from WalMart. Red wigglers. 
Good luck!
Can I put the seeds of stone fruit in my worm farm?
Particularly I want to know if I can add peaches, nectarines and mangoes – with seeds.
Sure, why not. The seeds aren’t going to harm anything and you can always remove them from the soil after the fruits have been used up if you want to.
What equipment is needed for a worm farm?
How to get started?
A 10 gallon opaque Rubbermaid container with lid. You’ll also want a pitcher to carry water in, a drill to drill holes in your container, and a drip tray underneath, just in case you overwater.
You may also want rubber gloves, a gardening fork, and a trowel, to turn it all over each week. (If you’re not squeamish, no need for those things.)
I suggest googling "worm farm how" and see what you get for how to get started. It’s really quite easy, so easy classroms do it to show kids how worms do their work.

Slugs in my worm farm?
I have slugs that have got into my worm farm. How can I get rid of them without affecting the worms?
Put a saucer or pie dish filled with beer on top of the dirt. Slugs love beer and will drown.
