Description

Misfit Farms sells only the healthiest and finest composting worms that are captive-born and bred. We gut load all of our worms with premium organic ingredients, many of which are OMRI certified, along with our worm chow blends to ensure they arrive to you lively and ready for action. Our worms are superior because they work all layers of the compost, not just the top few inches, giving you better compost faster.

Because they are bed run, some orders may have more than one species than another (Red Wigglers or Indian Blues), but rest assured, their populations will naturally adjust to the needs of your waste. Because of the adaptive nature of worms in some varieties, reproductive rates change with warmer weather, colder weather, moisture levels, soil content, etc.

Since shipping can be stressful for the worms, and less moisture in their container can cause them to shrink temporarily, we choose to sell our worms by the worm count instead of by the pound. Many breeders will fatten their worms for a week or two before shipping to get more weight for the scales and for their sales (the heavier the worms, the less you would need to put in a bag = more profit) however, we find this practice deceiving to the customer. That said, you can expect a close count of whichever option you chose, and you will usually get more than the listed amount to make up for any die-off during shipping.

**Please note, these worms are NOT suitable for reptile feeders because they secrete a bitter slime when threatened, which can make your animal sick. Instead, check out our selection of European Nightcrawlers for feeder treats!
