Earthworm Feed

vis · Jun 17, 2008

Hi all.
I know some of you give little bits of live(fresh, straight out of the ground kind of live, maybe chopped) earthworm.
No we kind of breed with earthworms. But I was wondering how can I make live earthworms into something that can be used for fish feed and give it a longer shelf life. As in how do I go about doing that not only for myself but maybe even earning some pocket money in the process.
Freeze dry(what is it, how?)?. just put them in the sun and dry? freeze them? chop them up etc.
Also do you think there is any kind of market for this?

any, ANY other relevant info will be kindly appreciated!
thanks

Put them in a container filled with moist dirty in the fridge. Keeps them alive for at least 2 weeks or so, maybe even longer.

Moist dirty? or did you just mean dirt?

Anybody know anything about drying?

I think the language is because both of them have their location as 'Seth Efrica'

Rocknurworld/Shroob and Kribensis. You see... "Vis" is "Fish" in Afrikaans, so I deducted that I'm not the only South African on the forum hence my posting which translates directly as:
"Ah! Fish,.....When I saw your nickname, I immediately deducted that there is another South African online, so I checked your "proprties"..... Where do you stay?? I am from Thabazimbi, Limpopo (Province).

Hope that clears the hyroglyphics for you.
