      Thank you so much. We get the larger gray bins from Sam’s Club and The smaller gray bins from websturant store.com They are an online store that sells restaurant supplies. The smaller ones are 20 x 15 x 5 and if you buy a certain amount we paid I think $3.10 each. Or something close to that.
      No my worms don’t escape. When worms are happy in their homes they won’t run because they won’t have a reason to. It took me years to figure that out😂 I do like to put newspaper on the surface with bubble plastic. Or I use worm blankets made of burlap which I sell on my website. Helps to keep moist inside

    Great video. You have an interesting approach that I haven't seen before. I am new to this obviously and have a question. Having already experienced a small dose of protein poisoning on a batch of worms that I received, found just a few on the top surface with this condition after about 3 days using a dry mix, what are the advantages to using your technique of clumping the mix serving wet? Any help is appreciated. Thanks for posting your videos. They are a big help.

    • @TheGardenAndWormLady
      @TheGardenAndWormLady  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Serving the food wet helps them eat it faster for some reason plus they like it more. When you clump it you give them choices whether they want to be near it or not. It’s hard to come back from protein poisoning , usually worms die. At the first sign you need to get the worms out of there ASAP and to fresh new bedding and hope for the best.

      Ive seen though you still can buy bait sized worms by the pound. Some websites sell worms by the pound thats all sizes, and then they may offer bait size worms by the pound which maybe twice as much since theyve feed them a lot of other things maybe chicken mash or soy or something. I forgot the website but i think price of bait worms was twice as much. I think theyd take adult worms and put them in a different bin to just grow out even more.

    On their own?

    • @TheGardenAndWormLady
      @TheGardenAndWormLady  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, you can leave European nightcrawlers and pure red wigglers. If your red wigglers are mixed with blue worms, the blue worms died through the winter and their cocoons turned to mush. That’s why it is important to have pure stock. You can layer food scraps or Manure and loads of straw and hay, and I believe they will be OK. They also go deep into the Earth and come back in the spring.

      If you have a deep bin it is good to have them together as the crawlers will process the food and bedding down towards the bottom of the bin while the reds will process the stuff near the top of the bin. It's a win/win situation.

    I know a man (now retired) who owned a bait shop in Anniston Alabama. He basically made a living off of crickets and worms and of course other fish gear, but worms were his bread and butter. Mr. Hinds had 9 large wooden worm bins. As far as I know, he raised ENC's and ONLY fed them on top with alfhalfa pellets wetted with water after sprinkling on top. I always wanted to raise worms but only had time to keep me enough to fish with. I am now retired and have a goal of making a hundred dollars a week after expenses. We have worms here that look like a snake when crawling. I am almost sure they are the "Alabama jumpers". Have you ever raised them? Are they legal to sell to other states? My bins are mostly "indian blue worms" as far as I can tell.

      @@theresarothenberger2264 that’s awesome! You just do what you have to do. I saw someone raise worms in a bucket, not a Home Depot bucket, but a bucket that you mop the floor with any container works. I actually found those at AliExpress but I have also seen them on eBay and I believe Amazon.

      @@TheGardenAndWormLady could you tell me where to get the plastic baby cycle of worms from cocoon to babies. I’m going to donate some to a science teacher for a fun project. Thanks again, and keep that laugh. 💗

    Are you out of the worm business, or just cant keep up? I see all your worms are out of stock on your website...

      Everything good, they are resting until the Autumn season. I start reselling in September approximately. I’ll probably retire doing this.🤩

    I found the video. I shy away from peat moss because it is so devastating to the economy, and so non-sustainable. Coconut coir is renewable and sustainable. I have bookmarked the recipe and will make it substituting coconut for Peat.
    Edit: I thought this video showed the recipe I was looking for. However it isn't. On the video I watched today you said you can feed them the same as my other recipe minus the powdered milk. This doesn't have powdered milk in it so it can't be the one I'm looking for

      I agree I also use coconut Coir at times, in the rotation video I mention the bedding that is posted in this video. The only difference is the food recipe will have powdered milk in it and the bedding will not. remember you have to harvest every 21 days and get rid of the bedding
