RE: Worms, Worms & More Worms Part 2 of Mini-Worm Farming🐛
We had a worm farm for a few years. We have a 8,x4' heated, fiberglass worm bin with an 80 gallon worm tea container underneath. We would get up to 300 pounds in there at a time. Worms are awesome for everything on a homestead. They create great soil, and you can feed them to the chickens, go fishing with them. Pretty cool when you can literally turn crap into an unbelievable (and expensive) soil amendment. Check us out @myhomesteaded and follow us. Have a good day.
You had a much bigger worm endeavor going and sounds like you did all the right things. True about Turing crapola into expensive dirt😉 I threw one of my worms at a Chicken of mine, it acted like it wasn't sure what it was, pecked at it as if trying to decide then ate it. They are young birds, probably hadn't seen a earthworm. Following you and thanks for stopping by🐓
We did have a big worm endeavor. We got our numbers up, around 500 pounds of worms. I was selling them at $10-20 per pound, using the castings for my gardens, and using and selling the worm tea. I ended up getting a very physically demanding job and neglected the worms, and ended up losing them all. I do plan on starting it back up again in the near future. Thanks for following, and I am now following you as well. Have a great day.
