His favourite food is the larvae of the Darkling beetle ( Zophobas Morio) But these are the equivalent of saurian mars bars!
Cute little things and very feisty, they bite if you are not careful.
The pupae of the larvae are particularly ugly and the closest thing to Alien, of the film variety, I have ever seen.

Very good blog, and gives me something to read while mine bed in!
Keep up the good work.
I have a small midi-wormery I keep in the kitchen, and it's just getting exciting now.
I've resisted the urge to have a good dig around as I fear disturbing them, but looks like you've done it for me!
Is the mould on the food ok? I assume so - my worms all seem lively and in good condition when they come out to the surface.
Yes mould is fine, it is part of the decomposition crew. The worms don't eat the food, they eat what eats it!
They are better left alone, hence I built the outside bin, the ones in the kitchen will have to put up with me.
Happy Squirming
