Q&A for How to Do Tricks with Your Fuzzy Magic Worm

No, they are not.

They are actually really cheap - you can find them in those little machines at the grocery stores for a quarter or two.

It should actually come with a string so you don't have to attach a string to it.

They would probably view it as the ideal toy, since it looks and moves a lot like prey. Be sure to keep it in a drawer or otherwise sealed away from them when not in use, and don't practice tricks with it while they're around.

You can buy them at Michael's, where they will most likely be titled as "Squirmles"

The string is really light and small, so it's almost invisible from far away. But that means it's also very fragile, so be careful with your little worm.

You can find them in most dollar stores under the names Squirming Worm, Twisty Worm, Fuzzy Worm or Magic Worm. Alternately, they can be purchased online from stores such as Amazon or Aliexpress.

Move your other hand with the string, and make it move. Also make sure to hide the cardboard in your fist.

Tie it around the nose. It's fairly simple but tedious. You might need to shine a light on the string to see it!

Recently a 54-pack cost $8 US on Amazon. You can also find twelve packs for around $7.

There are many name possibilities for your fuzzy worm. Examples include Scruff, Muffin, Pastry, Wormalicious, Wurm, Fuzzy Wuzzy, Wrigglebum, Fluff-pants, Tootsie, Wishy-Washy, and so on.

The best way to fix this is to replace the broken string with wires or invisible string, if those are not available, you can just use regular string.

You can prepare a small bowl with food colouring and water in it and dip your fuzzy worm in it. Just make sure to not dye his/her eyes!

You can feed them tiny bits of coloured construction paper and make sure to take them out at least once every day so that they don't get lonely!

You don't have to give them water, they don't like it anyway and sometimes it makes them smelly.

You can put it in a small bowl with the string hanging out so that it is not in the bowl.

You can use a small to medium sized bowl or Tupperware to house your worm. You can include a scrap of soft fabric as a bed and you can make a little potpourri for it too. You can feed it whatever you want but I would recommend small pieces of coloured paper in a bottle cap.

You can use fishing line or clear thread from any sewing/craft/tackle shop.

They usually cost $1 - $3. You can find them at dollar stores, drugstores, craft stores, gas stations, Walmart, Target and any toy shop.

Red, blue, purple, pink, green, light blue and orange, but you can dye the worm a different color if you would like to.

Yes, just prepare a pillow and a blanket for them! Sometimes the cold winter nights can be too much for the already fuzzy worm though every worm is different in their own special way, you will soon find their quirks after only a few days.

If it feels sad, do not hesitate to give it cuddles or food and let it just relax for a while. If it still feels sad, maybe find it a friend.

I'm sure your magic worm would love a fashion accessory! As to how, you might just hot glue the embellishment of your choice to the spot where its ears might be.

They do not come with specified gender, so you can choose whatever gender you want for you fuzzy magic worm!

It should come with a string, but if not you can tie it on the front next to the eyes.

Thankfully, fuzzy magic worms don't have feelings, so even if you think it does not like you, chances are you are wrong.
