Our newest pets

[LifeisaGarden]

This is our first worm bin. Anyone into vermicomposting?

[Jangler]

ooh wee mayne, I bet that feels good on a hot day.

[LifeisaGarden]

Um... whut?

[Doyle]

Llyod Christmas would be proud.

[LifeisaGarden]

Yep, I'm sure he would be.

This is one of my daughter's 4-H projects. I wonder how long they'll last.

[Jangler]

Keep them fed and separate when the tub has too many, it should last to infinity.

[PanthaSan]

They look tasty....

go fishing

[PanthaSan]

I have a horseshoe buddy who grows the neon ones. I swear they are bright and almost glow in the dark.

We inject them with various flavors when we use them for fishin'.

[LifeisaGarden]

Ive been considering this.

Keep us updated.

This was simple to set up. It's a kitchen vermicomposter. I Used a 5 gallon rubbermaid container($4), some dirt... I bought a small bag of organic garden soil with no fertilizers, perlite or artificial stuff ($3), 2 containers of red worms($7). Moisten soil, add the worms including the stuff they are packaged in, and start feeding them some of your kitchen scraps. I'm really interested in seeing how much they will eat.

[LifeisaGarden]

O, I will let you know that, I hate things that stink. I've read it won't smell if you make sure to cover up your scraps with dirt. I'm going to keep it either under the kitchen sink or in the bottom of my pantry, which ever place is less annoying. IF it starts to smell I'll move it to the garage.

the bitch got worms :D

[LifeisaGarden]

Don't call me a bitch, bitch.

I just found a container of worms in the fridge. WTF? My daughter must have put them in there after fishing. We keep mealworms in there for our sugar glider, so she must have thought fishing worms went in there, too. lol
