Which worm is better: Californian or Vladimir

Which worm is better: Californian or Vladimir

Summer residents can choose from three types of underground tillers. The most industrious are the red californian worms. With proper care, their population doubles every 2-3 weeks. One problem is that the food is very noticeable in the food and is tender: the optimum content temperature is 20-28 ° ะก, and if it drops below 5 ° C, they die.

In our climate, Californians are not the best choice. Only fans of organic farming, lively fishermen and owners of exotic animals fed worms, such as geckos, can disturb them. Yes, and they're not cheap - about 4 thousand rubles for 1500 individuals.

The soil in composting worms of domestic breeding - the Vladimirs - is stronger and tougher, not too fast in terms of food, and they are not inferior in terms of fertility to foreigners (the offspring of a caterpillar reach to 750 individuals in half a year). Price from manufacturer (pre-order and prepayment) - 1500 rub. for pieces of 1500. At dealers 2 times more expensive.

The overall productivity of "savages", which can be consumed for free in their own garden or near the forest, is markedly lower due to slow reproduction. For the first time they crawl, which is not to say about their cultural counterparts. But they are perfect in local conditions, they will always find food on site and live in the winter.
