I live in Australia.. and noticed the supply of earthworms is rapidly going down.. so I'm wondering - are they seasonal?
We have a nice backyard (1/4 of an acre), and plenty of gardens where I collect worms for my hungry axies. I would not like to buy any, especially since I use soo many - they are the main thing my axies get.. but if I can't find any, say in Winter - what do I do?
I have been asking mum to get a worm farm, hopefully she will give in. Her reasons not to is they are hard to look after, we already have a compost heap (no worms in it though) and that would mean less treats for the chickens (they have their large run, so they don't eat the worms on me). I think she'll get one if I say I can't find any worms.
Today I all found was one little bug. Not a single worm. I looked in all the gardens, everywhere.
