Slugs?

Dang, man, your the expert! You have like, a billion snakes, and I only have one! And I'd like to keep him nice and healthy, so I don't want to feed him anything I shouldn't, but I'd like to get free food out of my yard so I don't go broke buying my food from stupid stores like PetsMart!! But I don't know enough about that to risk it without some help. I think I'll just stick with store bought food, except maybe occasionally, like when I run out and haven't bought any... sigh...

No, no I'm not.
All any of us can do is make suggestions to you in response to your questions. You must gather all the information given to you and make a decision.
I don't want to tell you what to do.
If your question had been whether you should feed your snake goldfish. I would have came right out and said no you shouldn't but that doesn't mean you would listen. It would be your choice.
Your question of whether to feed wild caught worms/slugs has far less of a risk and comes down to the keeper's personal preference.
These are your snakes and you must develop a plan on keeping them as all of us have done with our snakes

I've never had any problems that I could associate with feeding my snakes worms that I collected from the wild. It is my opinion that as long as you get them from an unpolluted source, it doesn't hurt anything. Gut loaded worms and slugs are quite nutritious. High in calcium and iron.

So I'll probably end up doing it. Just not a lot...

I would listen if you said no goldfish, because you're the expert(compared to me). Or at least an expert. You know what you're talking about, and you know more than me, and you have way more experience than me. I'd feel the same way with Richard, or Wayne... Not EXPERTS, but experienced snake keepers. But I hear what you're saying.
