African nightcrawlers Worms

African nightcrawlers , scientific name, Eudrillus eugeniae , originated in tropical West Africa and has grown in other warm regions around the world. It is worthwhile to vermicast worm compost, manure worms, worm castings or Black Gold, which is equivalent in size and shape of mouse droppings. Vermicast is not like most people when using the media materials worms can actually be used as fertilizer or seed to plant.
Growth of plants and their roots have shown some remarkable results due to the biological makeup and the amount of beneficial aerobic microbes using castings. Use of this product have also been shown to make the plants, whether flowers, vegetables, shrubs or trees, to be an antidote to plant diseases. The exact reason for this is unknown, but some theorize that vermicast which generally produce more fertile plants.

This species is a worm warm climates require a minimum temperature of 25 degrees Celsius to survive. The most prolific African nightcrawlers for composting and reproduction at temperatures hovering around 25 degrees Celsius ambient temperature around 21 degrees but it was enough for them. African Nightcrawler worms can survive in temperatures up to 43 degrees Celsius in the shade as long as there is air movement over the surface.
Unlike other African Nightcrawler Worms make the cocoon is not very long, worm eggs, forming a cocoon and then hatch. African Nightcrawler cocoons can hatch within 12 days under the right environmental conditions. Cocoon-like form of tomato seeds started out the olive-colored when first released, then switch to a dark brown color before hatching.
In good conditions, we can expect an average minimum of three to four earthworms hatching per cocoon for each. While every adult worms lay eggs anywhere from 2 pupal cocoons per week to 12 weeks depending on the environment in which they were raised.
African Nightcrawler is a larger worm, it does not take much longer to reach maturity, basically five months. African Nightcrawler reaches a length of 6 to 8 inches in eight months with some exceeding this length of time above 30 to 60 additional days for up to 10 inches long.
African nightcrawlers unlike some other compost worms, this species may also eat vegetable trash and cardboard. It was very good as a fertilizer flukes and worms will eat shredded newspaper. Other material media for earthworms is sphagnum peat moss that is widely available.
If you increase African nightcrawlers for fishing, we have found the best way to fatten them is to use the Purina Worm Chow as both a major food source or supplement. Our findings also found that the use of certain worm food has benefited our earthworm reproduction by increasing the ratio of the cocoon is the placement of breeding worms. Environmental conditions will also play an important role in spawning ratio.
