Answer 1

Add some shredded news papers They will be just fine in dirt and papers.. keep it moist ..

Answer 2

You appear to be on top. You cannot remove the internal 'mud' from the earthworms, if you have a shredder put some shredded paper on their compost, also peat to keep the clean and fresh. Just keep them damp not WET. coffee grounds are remains of ground coffee left in the pot.
