European Nightcrawlers Care & Feeding

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Countryside : One Thread

My kids wanted to try their hand at a small worm business. The worms arrived today. I put them in a plastic bucket with some healthy looking loose soil, slightly damp. We put a few vegetable scraps on top for food. Anybody got any experience with this? Any advice would be appreciated. I would hate to kill the worms they worked so hard to buy!

Thanks for the input. I got the worms from Wormman out of New York, if I am not mistaken.
