i just picked up another doz and a half at wal mart
Have you guys ever put them ice water just before you use them? Makes them really firm and wiggly.
I have a couple of bigger styrofoam boxes - like from Omaha steaks. I put a couple inch deep layer of compost in the bottom then fill the rest with wet leaves and cover it with wet paper. I feed them my wife's coffee grounds daily. I keep about 150-200 per box...... I found that I need to cut a couple inch hole in the top to give them air or the stuff gets moldy..... I cover the hole with a mesh screen so they don't escape.....
yes that deep dark worm dirt is uggly stuff never again, pontoon boat looked like the grandkids finger painted all over the place not good
Ice water has the opposite affect on me :-)
When I buy worms first think I do I’d dump all the dirt and rinse them off. Then they go into the newspaper. Within a week they deposit all the black dirt they ingested. Rg
