Not clear enough of a pic. Might be a cutworm of some kind. Clean it off and put it on a plain background with something showing the scale. Also include the Insect Forum,

Apropos of nothing, but do you know what a worm egg looks like? Once you see one, they're easy to spot---especially in a nice situation like you've got going on there. They're shaped like little lemons, but more snail-y-shelled, and range in color from light yellow to tan to brown.

Sorry, clothes peg is all I could find for scale.

Hi tj,

Yes that is the closest I could find to identifying it. Are they something that is healthy for a worm bin?

Hi Annpat,

Thanks for the additional info. Just started worm farming so to be honest no I have no idea what the eggs look like. Can you see any eggs in the above photo?

No, but I tried. I bet I could find lots of them in person. I thought I saw two of your worms conjoined. The eggs are small---the size of this letter 'o' and they have a little point on both ends resembling the shape of a lemon. The outer shell is brown and slightly shiny. Once you identify one in your bin, you'll have no problem spotting them the minute you take the lid off. If you have little round pearly white eggs in your bin, you have introduced slugs by mistake. Ask me how I know.

It's a grub, soldier fly larva are blackish in color and don't look like that. When I get slugs or snails I stomp them with my right foot. That is the only thing I kick out. Sow bugs are great too and I read in a UC magazine that their poo is just as good as worm poo.

That bug looks like a cutworm. https://www.scotts.com/en-us/library/insect-control/how-kill-cutworms-lawn
