Best price for Red Wigglers 2 Years, 8 Months ago Karma: 0  
I am a new worm guy and I want to get some red wigglers. I already bought 1/4pd of African Night crawlers which are doing fine. Just slow since there are not many worms.

So I want to start another bin with more worms to work (and breed) faster! I want to try Red wigglers for this one.

So far the cheapest I have found online is http://oldsouthworms.com.p2.hostingprod.com/index.html They offer one pound for $22.95 with shipping included.

I have two questions here.

1. Is this place OK to buy from or will I get ripped off?
2. Can anyone here make a better deal? (More worms same price,... same amount lower price..)

Thanks for your advice!

Hello, welcome to vermiculture.

Never heard of them, so I cant give you any feedback on them. Alot of us sell worms here, but look at this list- it has many top vendors: http://www.cityfarmer.org/wormsupl79.html

Thanks there are a bunch to look through at that link.

If I don't find a better price I think I am going to try the oldsouthworms. I know cheaper isn't always better (but sometimes it is )

Thanks for the reply.

Screw it! I can't save more than a buck so I am going to try them. Now I have a new question!

6 months from now will I have more worms if I get...

1. 1lb bedrun
2. 1000 breeders

Any opinions?

I haven't heard of that company. That is a good price, let us know how it goes if you order from them.

In 6 months from now I would go with the bredders. The bredders will start producing eggs when you get them. With bedrun worms you have no idea as to how many will be able to breed.

I decided to try 2lb bed run. I figured more is more and the price wasn't much different.

I ordered over the weekend and he sent them out Monday. I'll let you know when I get them.
