Could i use earth worms i find outside?

How did it turned out?Also if I may ask what's in your aquarium that I see in the back?

My outside compost piles stay pH 6.6 to 7.2. Basically neutral. So I try to keep the smaller earthworm containers about the same. I actually use chicken grit instead of lime. chicken grit is ground oyster shell, so it has calcium, magnesium and other trace monerals. Slower acting than lime so not as likely to do a quick swing and mess things up.

Thanks for the response, David. You mentioned adding lime to adjust the pH. Do earthworms prefer alkali or acidic condition? We might be getting a little technical, but I am hoping you know.

Along with the paper, I usually add some bagged top soil or potting soil. Leaves would be great. Add some lime or calcium or something to keep the pH reasonable. Inside I am using Rubbermaid or one of the other brands of tubs available everywhere.

David, how about using natural leaves instead of shredded paper? I am guessing that it might have more nutrition than paper. Also, I heard that worms need sand to chew and digest. Would it be a good idea to use natuaral soil as well? I store my fishing worms in the frigerator. Do you need to do this when you raise worms? What kind of box do you use for the worms? Looks like a tupperware box?

I love this guy

I really, really, really wonder how I find these videos..

Not sure what you mean by different types of worms. I know people that raise grindal worms in the same containers with earthworms. They get a lot of both types of worms. I have not tried different types of earthworms. You don't want to put in night crawlers. They add so much slime that it will be nasty to feed the fish. David

Can you put different types of worms together?
-
i wouldnt buy shit from a place called "shady creek" if i didnt see this video XD

@JACOBiiTE Common sense, feed the size your fish can eat. If they are swimming around with worm hanging out of their mouth then it needs to be cut up. Some fish take whole worms , some cut in half, small fish need the worms really chopped up. Rinse the water after chopping.

I just talked with the woman at Shady Creek Worms about the order I made a week ago, and she said they are shut down for the winter and will refund my money.- Her son has't yet changed the website to stop accepting orders.
