Buying cocoons in bulk - 2008/03/11 13:56 Hi all,

I have several thousand worms muching away in the garage as i type. However, I am looking to expand my operation tailored more to the vermicompost market.
I want to increase my worm population drastically and rapidly without spending a fortune. This got me wondering, could i buy in bulk (thousands) of cocoons to kickstart my population? Would the cheapness of the cocoons be offset by the labour time taken to seperate them from the castings? Does anybody know where i could purchase such an amount of cocoons particuarly in England?
I am in the process of aquiring land and need to build up a large breeding stock to inoculate these new outside beds.

Cheers guys.
