Redworm Tips

When you get your redworms in the mail you should have your worm bedding ready for your redworms it should be as moist as a damp sponge. When the worms have avrived  just dump the the worms and the bedding that they come in, onto there new home they will work there way down into the new bedding. 

After a few days your worms should be settled in there new home and after that you can be begin to add some food waist, 1 to 2 pounds of worms will eat from 1 to 3 pounds of waste a week based on if they are in a small space 16x16 inches like the worm factory.

Here is a tip for increasing worm egg production get you a container say 12"x10"x8" deep. You will also need a 1/4 hardware wire and some 1x4 wood to make a box. Build a box of any size you want and attach the wire on the bottom. Now screen some age compost and some horse if you can get, Fill the container about 6 inces deep and moisten well but to wet.

Now pick out your collord redworms only about 1/2 pound for the size container and put the worm in cover with a lid with vent holes. Wait 30 days no longer and remove the redworms and put the bedding with all the eggs in a new container and start over. I have been doing this a long time and it works great for stocking new redworm beds.
