I would doubt that even a single one would have enough to eat in anything smaller than a ten gallon drum, and if the soil dries out, they die.
Agree'd so, the question is not if it'll be safe or not... the question is, how do you keep em alive?

Maybe use some old plant mulch? dead plant material is easy to find....

I'm gonna find out for sure before i start throwing worms into my pot's pot.
