very interesting thread, it seems that the pumpkin doesnt kill the worms but it paralises them and makes them relise grip on the tortoises gut, then when the tortoise poos they all come out... most anyway if it has some

Due to poor conditions during the growing season you may find there is a shortage on pumpkins this year and those that are avalible will be mostly green.
