Examples

“The most popular worm probably is the "red wiggler," a small but active species which reproduces throughout the year. When placed on the bedding, they will quickly burrow out of sight. They may be purchased from bait dealers or commercial worm farmers. About 200 of them will start a good backyard operation. Feeding is a simple matter, as the worms will eat almost anything. They consume table scraps, coffee grounds, chicken mash, cottonseed meal, cornmeal, lettuce, celery, cabbage, and kitchen fat.”
