cocoons and baby worms come out the 1/4" screen and the castings come out the 1/8" screen. over and larger worms come out the end of the trommel
Wow, pretty sure Troy just gave me "the talk"! All kidding aside, thank you for an incredibly informative video. I've wanted to put together worm breeder bins and I feel much better prepared to do so now. Sure appreciate you guys!
Texas here! I got red wigglers for my birthday in September. Today they had past their prime bananas. Excited to learn more.
500 worms to a breeder bin (small mortar tray)
Thank you for both comments. I watched this video mainly to get this number
Indiana here. Thank you for educating us.

You got it Carol!
Great information
Excellent presentation Troy.
Funnily enough when you were describing how the cocoons hatch.. I was thinking of that ‘paper towel’ lady…
Things are happening at ‘Wormpocalypse’ with new cocoons appearing in my newest bin.. conceived before I transplanted the worms therein. I need to separate my cocoons into a smaller tote. The best bedding establishing a new tote? Maybe some of the substrate of where those cocoons came from?
Get the ‘consistency’ reasoning behind using worm chow. It makes sense as you are less likely to get things wrong acidity wise and anerobic Wise …? Might be wrong.
Thanks again..
Should of said..
Here in The Kingdom of Fife,
Scotland.
I've heard the rule of thumb of 100 worms per gallon to maximize breeding (from Captain Matt's channel)
Curious to learn!
Greenville SC here. 😃
I separate wettish, almost finished castings from my bins with a quarter inch screen. Will contain castings, bedding and small worms and cocoons. Looks like coarse castings. Is this a good medium to keep wet and hatch cocoons and bait the small worms?? To eventually let dry out and sift through 1/8” screen. At this point I’m only feeding in a bait cup. It’s been a week. First try where I haven’t just used in the garden but rather am thinking it’ll be a “hatchery”.
Hello from Elkhart Indiana. Just learning.
Welcome!
not many florida wormers seems
Coco coir for worms would be like taking raw fiber for us
Correct......it's a base material that needs other organic matter to be attractive for worms.
