Worm Fattener
The quickest way to plump up those worms!
WORM FATTENER RECIPE*
5 parts chicken layer mash (ground or powdered)
2 parts bran (wheat or rice)
1 part wheat flour
1 part powdered milk
1 part agricultural lime (adds grit for digestion)
1 part alfalfa pellets (alfalfa pellets contain natural sugars that aid in bacteria production, add this if desired)
The easiest way to use this is to mix a handful of this mixture with food waste once a week. For large volume bins, just dig a 1/2 inch trench with your finger along the middle of the bin, fill the trench with worm fattener, then moisten it. This mixture must be moistened before the worms can consume it. Dry ingredients can harm your worms, they need their skin to be moist at all times.
