Well I dont know if even the garage will have enough room for you...........my area is 20 ft 30 ft and I still have stuff stacked every where saying that you are going to have babies and big ones sorted apart is a great thing to say but requires a lot of worm picking tumblers are great if you have one but bear in mind soil has to be very dry otherwise it just clumps up into a big ball as you spin it. as far as 1000 lbs not even close to enough.... I order around 25000 worms every 4-6 weeks
I sell them faster than I can get them to grow.
I have containers of 18 /$2.25 24 /$2.50 36 /$3.35
remember when you price yours that I live in a tourist based area the stores I sell to price 30 to 50 percent above that...also keep in mind that you can do convience stores and set up a tackle line to go into thoose stores also. your mark up on that can be a very good supplemental income since you are at that place delivering anyway.....
for insulation I went with sheets of air duct material and sealed it up with metal tape on all the seams but buy the good metal tape the cheap stuff is just a big headache
Some states regulate what containers you can use check into this before you buy a bunch of styrofoam cups. you dont want fish and wildlife giving you a hard time.....fines can be expensive for begining small business.
gee what a long post hope yall are still awake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! also figure in rising gas cost it isnt ever gonna stop
and having to raise your prices 3 months into business
doesnt make for happy customers
I think my supplier sells just eggs also try this #
