RE: Homesteading Challenge #3 – My Favorite Livestock
Wow..I always knew that worms suck out the dredge and enrich soil superbly with their excretions..
But you spoke about them with such respect, familiarity, and love!! I couldn't help thinking warmly about them and how their 9-weekly doubling in numbers really a welcome infestation for top quality soil.
they eat up to half their weight in a day Wow, that's impressive. Who'd have thought that of a worm!!!! I should think their guts are huge and take up most of their body length.. =P
Yeah, their metabolism is off the charts! Could you imagine me eating 30 kg in a day, or three ten kilo meals? That's what I always like to remind people of whenever they mention that I eat a lot. ;-)
HAHAHAH that's exactly what came to mind when I read your article..I was calculating 50% of my weight...no wayyyyy..hahahha
You got the perfect excuse now..no wonder you remember the details of these wormies so welll!!! teehee
