The Day of the Worms

 

 

Yay! My worms finally arrived yesterday. When I got home from work, they were waiting on my porch. It's a good thing that they don't have little feet or they would have been stamping them in frustration from waiting for me all day. Luckily my wrap-around porch is mostly shady so they didn't get too hot.

They were packaged in some sort of soil (worm poo?) in a white mesh bag then in a post office box padded with newspaper. I was curious how they would arrive but they did just fine, all wiggly and wormy as soon as I dumped them in their new home. For their welcome meal they had some savory garlic stem clippings (dried), a handful of fresh Rose of Sharon leaves and finally a side of yummy zucchini bits. The instructions said to put in their munchies first, followed by worms then their cardboard packaging soaked in water.

When I checked on them this morning, they were wiggling and nibbling away!

Yay!
