I'm so excited. The first week I had my worms, there wasn't much action going on in the bin. In fact, I thought I killed them. But, a week later, I find that they are alive and well and eating what I give them. In fact, there are little eggs and also some baby worms in the bin.
I find you can't give them everything. In reality, composting worms are picky eaters.
Yeah, seriously, no papaya seeds, because it's a natural de-wormer. But, you can give them the rest of the papaya.
They want their food mashed up. Well, obviously, they got little mouths and so it makes them eat faster if they can get some of that food ground up. I know, how do they do in in the natural world? Well, I want to start increasing my worm colony so whatever I can do to speed up the process is a wonderful idea. I'm testing that.
Also, not too much onions or tomatoes.
Anyway, I enjoy my little composting worms and I want more of them because it just amazes me how they can take something and turn them into organic compost.
AWESOME!
