The vermi-composting thread rekindled my interest in vermicomposting so i googled for vermi-composting worms in Singapore and wow! I found 2 pple selling the worms, harvested from their own worm farms. I'm gonna start my own worm castle!! they're arriving later in the afternoon and I already have their worm tower ready (home-made, recycled from some large plastic bins we had ard the house) some soaking cardboard and scraps from last night's dinner preparation set aside for them. can you tell i'm super excited?

the guy is charging me $60 for 200grms of worms, slightly less than a 1/4 of a pound and about $40 USd.... I think its quite a steep price but then I don't have any other sources and both these guys sell at the same price. He says his worms are nightcrawlers, not the other kind, I'm not sure though, he says the only difference is that his are less prone to escape from their castle. Wonder is anyone knows more about these. I'm worried they won't be able to deal with mostly vegetable scraps I'll be giving them...
