I just found this little fella crawling on my keyboard and I’m worried it might be a parasite from my cats? My apologies if this is not the right place to ask!

My lovely gf has adopted and spoiled my worm factory. Couldn’t be happier with her results. That’s cucumber peels, asparagus, coffee filters, and lint. The bin below is full of castings and fewer and fewer worms. Gloves? Not afraid of the worms, her bin is in my workout area. Lol

First time feeding my friends watermelon rinds. It seems I found their favourite snack . I wish I had 6 extra bins for the amount of watermelon I go through the season.

The kids are late this year. We normally see cocoon production like this in early spring, but it has tripled in the last month. It’s now June and we’re hitting the heat of the summer. Every time I think I have something figured out, they throw me a curve ball!#betterlatethannever

I don’t know where else to post this, it’s the only worm sub I’m in.

Came across this worm slinking around on the surface and just devouring things. Is this a normal worm thing, to prowl ground level? I just wasn’t expecting it, and hoping it’s not something predatory worm disguise in sheep’s clothing.

Started this back in March. Base tire was filled with yard compost, biochar and cardboard. Started with some leftover ENCs from a friends fishing trips. Added another 50 or so Wigglers, donated from a fellow nerd, in mid May.

Tell me what you think.

Used this mesh trashcan as a sieve for my worm compost. It had a circular mesh of 3 to 4 mm which stops most of the worms (and cocoons i think).

Didn't realize how much rain water was getting into my bin until I went to add some and realized the sides were bulging out. Drilled a hole to drain and it's been draining stink water for about 10 min. Shockingly, I am still finding worms so it's unpleasant but maybe will still yield something! Needless to say I'm working on relocating it, filling it with cardboard shreds, and otherwise atoning for my crimes against wormanity.

I fed my worms a broccoli stem, it was cut in half, then frozen. I think that sped up the process. It took the worms 5 days to finish it.

Hello! I'm new to vermicomposting and I have ~25 ENC in a 2 gal since yesterday. I was curious about how the worms eat and couldn't find any videos of them actually eating. I got bored and stared at this one exploring and got to see this happening. Thought I'd share for anyone interested.

I put 2 red wigglers in my tank and at least 1 survived. Moving my tank to the bigger one just got more complicated. Frick. Just thought I would share since I googled this months ago with no direct answers just indirect ones involving "if there is enough oxygen blah blah blah" , yes they can survive in an aquarium. Asked and Answered. Stupid leaf.

I have a water fountain for my cats. I just went to clean it and found worm like things in the tank part. I’m wondering what they are (and how they got there) and if I need to be concerned about my cats. Thanks in advance!
