Thank you. I just found the thread "I want to build a Worm Farm" and couldn't help myself. All the secrets are out there now. I have learn't from other websites and this one, so I am happy to pass on any knowledge I can. Worm farming is very easy to do.

It makes sense if he can sub contract if you like some of the breeding. All he has to do it pack them in small tubs of about 20 worms and sell them for $4 each with a minimum of 24 tubs to bait shops. It is very labour intensive so if I can make a few $$ and so can he all is good.

Just have to grow them out as soon as possible. Ok it is time to return to the sieve lol.

Things are looking up with an email from him today. Even more useful information. It is good to see that a big player in the game is prepared to share his knowledge with a small time back yard player. It really helps to keep the passion for it alive.

The fishing worms come at a price because the difficulty in breeding them and trying to prevent them from escaping their beds. They can be problematic, need great care and are time consuming to say the least
I will master them even if I get old doing it.

Help....my worms are trying to escape....why is that? They seem to be swarming all over the place.....help!!!!!!!

[Adam]

Chris, is any of the food in the bin moldy? That can cause them to jump ship. Can you give us some more information?

[Chris Willis]

No, as far as I know there isn't any mould. I'm actually trying to separate them from the castings and I've removed the lowest bin to do that, using the light method to remove the castings....have transferred the 2nd bin to the bottom, and that's the bin that the worms are going mad in. I can't work it out as they were fine only this morning. I put some cow manure in to give them a treat. That's all :-)
