Raising Canadian Nightcrawlers At Home | DIY Dew Worm Farm

Where can I get the stuff you mentioned called “black earth” ?

How often do you have to change out the bedding?

Are these worms same as the one we get when its raining?

Looks like you are doing this for the first time ever

I hope they don't get paper cuts crawling around in there

love your shirt Gimli Manitoba i lived just an hour from there

Once we fished in Canada and found night crawlers in the leaves along the waters edge

Will the night crawlers reproduce in this setup

My grandparents we're in the nursery business when I was they had three Big greenhouse the one up front with a glass house made of metal and glass add a big wheel and are you could turn to lift the glasses up when it got too hot and humid and he used to raise his own nightcrawlers it reminds me of him I sure did love grandfather and grandmother they would do anything went to live with them when I was like 14a think and work for them

Thank you

Thanks for the great story and video! My worm farm has alot of fruit flies.. is that a problem?

Started a bin a couple of weeks ago and I am finding that the Ca nightcrawlers are staying on top. They seems to really like the moist cardboard layers that I put on top. Does that surprise anyone and should I be concerned? Perhaps it means my bedding is inadequate? I used several layers of shredded paper, coconut coir and cow manure compost.

[thank, you for you're video and you're info]👍

you maybe answered this already but how often do u water? just when the top looks dry or weekly?

How do they know it’s evening, in a dark box, inside a dark shed ? Lol

At 4.99 a dozen for crawlers, I think I'll give it try.

A few means 3.

Hi Dave. My daughter and I built a worm farm as per your instructions. We seem to get a layer of thin white mold growing on the surface. Is that normal?

Thanks for the great video!

Really enjoy your videos; I'm a fellow fisherman too - love every kind of fishing, and know the Saugeen well. I have raised red wigglers for years, but had no idea you can do nightcrawlers like this as well. Thanks for sharing this!

I have had some trouble keeping a colony of our nightcrawlers. I have a colony of red wigglers that are 15 years old. The night crawlers can't live with them for some reason. Any idea on how to fatten red wigglers up? Some of them are so small that I can't see any fishing with them the bigger ones would need a small hook. I live near Barrie On. I usually just put my paper product into a bucket of water let them soak up the water drain let it come down to room temperature than add to my worms.
