Worm Box Questions

Great! Plenty of Bream and Bluegills waiting on them. They are hungry. Go and feed them. Parrot fish in aquariums love them too. Mine get a treat about once a week.

The bad thing about the Africans is that they take a while to get really big,maybe 4 or 5 months.And they each have about 6 babies a week,after 2 months,do the math,lol.

Mealworms, Live crickets Red Worms at Worm Man's Worm and Crickets Farm will give you all you need for worms and raising your own. If it is not on the they have always been very helpful in getting you the answers you need.

Amen. Stay away from crawlers. Took some to Guntersville yesterday. Left them in the trunk for an hour. When the wife and I finished eating at the Oyster Bar and changed to go catfishing there was a big surprise. The trunk of our car stunk to high heaven! They had all perished.

No more crawlers for me......period!

Boy how things have changed since this thread started,lol.Seems like I have had these worms for a really long time,Ha.

Changed my mind about trying to raise. African crawlers. I cannot stand the thought of them all dying in the garage on a cold winter night and my home smelling like 2 months of old smelly sh^^*+£€ up in here. Gonna get a cup of red wigglers at the bait shop and put them in the green tub.
