This 2,000-count listing is intended for a larger, already planned vermicomposting setup. Prepare the bin and bedding before arranging live-worm delivery. The listed quantity is a count, not a two-pound weight guarantee; worm sizes vary.
Prepare the worm bin
Red wigglers (Eisenia fetida) live in moist organic bedding near the surface. Provide ventilation, bedding that feels like a wrung-out sponge, and modest amounts of suitable food scraps. Add more food only as the bin processes what is already there. See Oregon State University Extension’s worm-bin guide for setup and maintenance.
Plan your order
Worm-bin performance depends on moisture, temperature, food, and bin management; this pack does not promise a processing rate or a date when a colony will expand. Review our live-animal shipping policy and the current worm listings. For a large or time-sensitive order, contact Ficarro Farms to discuss availability before planning around it.

We actually had these shipped during a really bad Texas storm and they came dead, about 4 hours after I emailed them they sent off a replacement, and updated me with the new tracking code, awesome customer service!
