    Consider a Worm Farm for the person who has everything else for Christmas

    Just an update. I am no longer at the Sharks Farmers Markets on a Saturday morning. It was costing me more money to be there than I was taking in sales some weeks and I would just break even other weeks. It wasn't the worms that was the problem but nobody was buying much from any of the stall holders. Even the fruit and veggie people were finding it tough..

    Maybe in a few weeks I might try again. Funny thing is I have had several calls asking if I was going there.

    Thank you to those members who have ordered worms. I really appreciate it. For those who are considering I now have added Paypal to my website and updated and added more content. As I get smarter I will pass it on to help others.

    I am now posting complete Worm Farm Kits. There is the 32lt tub, tap, dry bedding, cover mat and 1500 worms. $40 plus postage. Qld $20 and interstate $25. They are not listed on my website yet so contact me via the Contact Page if interested. Thanks

    I am hoping too spend more time here now I have sort of finished my website. It is work in progress but I am happy with it at the moment.

    With the profit, "What is that?" I keep my prices as low as I can so I hope to move more stock. If I charge more I sell less so I will see how it goes.
    Over the Christmas Break I did some research and I now have changed my production strategies. It is hugely labour intensive but no pain no gain. I am seeing a huge increase in my stock levels already. Hmmm Profit is sounding good after the amount of work I do when I get home from work.

    I am looking at building a mechanical harvester which will save me many hours of hand sieving the worm beds. Kills your back too, so what I do in say 8 hours I would be able to do it in about 1 hour. I have put a link below so you can see what I mean. Hopefullly it will work

    Thanks to this Thread and this Forum I got a call from a chap who is one of the largest suppliers of worms in Australia. I knew exactly who he was soon as he said his name. Took him a bit by surprise I think. Anyway he was looking for fresh stocks of African Night Crawlers. Our chat was very productive for me because he gave me tips on how to do better and combined with the other things I found out I should be well placed to cover any orders that come in. Sadly I couldn't meet his request just yet but I am working on it. He will take all the Fishing size Africans I can produce so there is incentive to do better and do well.
