I was going to film a little update today again, but Storm Darragh is hitting us hard and its miserable out there! But the cocoons are all starting to hatch, and I have another big load of cocoons ready to harvest. Also, little bonus, keep a close eye on the bottom cocoon around the 9:40 part of the video, can see a baby worm moving around! ❤
I'm glad you found it! Hope you enjoy the content here as well. I know it isn't for everyone, but it's certainly another passion of mine I wanted to share!
Not sure where you live. If you are in the UK, check Screwfix (Apollo 1/4" Mesh Riddle 370mm, Apollo 1/2" Mesh Riddle 370mm). But I actually found another one that was a little cheaper but actually works much better for my setup: geni.us/Sieve A pound of worms will be a great start. Good luck with your new worm bin.
You have yourself a healthy crop of worms growing there too Shaun! Do you ever place a couple worms in your containers during the growing season? -Bob...
Hi Shaun! I've been enjoying your new channel a lot so far. And adopted the first tips already. Unfortunately there is no link to the mentioned sieve in the description. And the link that is there points to a whole bunch of shredders. Which one do you advice? How many sheets does it handle and and which size comes out? Would a P4 do? Despite my small worm bin, I'm so sick of cutting cardboard by hand!
They are my "checking on the chillies and worms" shoes 😎 Bought two pair of them because they were half price. So will be in dashing pink/red crocs for a little while 👠
I know it's entirely too late for this time, but you might try a light harvest next time. It might be faster and less tedious for you. You have some beautiful monster worms giving you some big cocoons. I hope you get multiple wisps from each one.👍🏼🪱😄

Big fat happy worms and nice healthy eggs🇳🇿🪱
fan of the main channel here, seems like the rebrand was a good call considering i got a rec to this without any prior thing with vermiculture

Great video bro! Can you please add a link for the sifters. I will be starting my worm 🪱 bins next week. How many worms are good to start with?

Hi you said you keeping a temperature of around 20c for your breeding worms 🪱 are you increasing the temperature to 27c to hatch out the eggs?
I don't increase the temperature. They will hatch at temperatures of 18'C to 25'C. So Warner would be better but not entirely necessary.

What kind of worms are those?
They are mostly Red Wigglers (Eisenia fetida)
