Re: What did you feed your worms today?
Are you buying your worms individual Christmas presents or getting them a group one??? It sounds very much like you are enjoying your herd. They won’t complain about the look of the insulation you are using. They will be very grateful in the temps at the moment. Mine are in the greenhouse I just we...

Re: What did you feed your worms today?
Raw cauliflower and courgette seem to be a hit with mine! Chopped up really finely so that it's very moist, almost liquidised but not quite. I get excited about varying their diet, though - they'll get some sprouts in next feed! Was pleased to find them all gathered merrily (?!) around the food corn...

Re: Adding second tray in cold weather
Many thanks Willy for the advice and reassurance - I'll do as you suggest and wrap the bin in a blanket if/when it gets very cold. Thanks to reading through this forum's posts I've been using the four corner feeding method too and it's been a great way to keep track of things. I may leave them in th...

Re: Adding second tray in cold weather
Many thanks Lilwriggler - that sounds like a good idea, I think perhaps I should try that - gives them a couple of extra 'rooms' to explore if they fancy a change of scene too! I imagine there's probably still some coir bedding in the bottom of this first tray but I haven't wanted to disturb them to...

Adding second tray in cold weather
Wondering about when to add next tray! Have had wormery 10 weeks now so been feeding for the last 8, just small amounts twice a week which are being eaten. Lots of shredded newspaper/card and some old dry leaves on top and all seems fine, appears to be quite a lot of vermicompost under that (black a...

Re: What did you feed your worms today?
Finely chopped mixed vegetables and banana skin with a side salad, apple purée and teabag sprinkles, all served on a bed of shredded cardboard! (Almost) good enough to eat myself. I'm amazed at how much my little herd's appetite has increased since this mild spell of weather has returned. It's made ...

Re: Like pets without vets!
Thanks Willy, appreciate the tip. Now hoping we'll get through the Winter ok and that, after the cold weather, will be ready to start the next tray. Fingers crossed!

Like pets without vets!
Thank you so much for my wormery, I'm loving it and have become mildly obsessed. I bought it early September and all seems to be going well so far, now moved from a sheltered spot outside into the shed where they can stay over winter. It's like having pets without vets - I want to give them the best...
