African Night Crawlers – A Great Bait Worm – These Are Also GREAT For Feeding Pets
(Axolotls, Bearded Dragons, Stingrays etc)
Bait size for African Night Crawler worms is MINIMUM 7 cm long – usually they are 10-12cm long – but can be up to 15 cm long !
We supply worms that are over the 7 cm mark – and at most times are 10 to 15 cm long.
Africans are fatter at the head – at about 5 to 7 mm thick – and get thinner towards the tail.
By comparison, “normal” composting worms are only 2 to 4 cm long by 1 – 2 mm thick.
(Please see below for why some compost worms aren’t good for fishing bait, or feeding to pets)
Why Aren’t “Normal” Composting Worms As Good For Fishing Or Pets ?

Comments From Happy Customers:
(The worms were mailed at lunch time Monday, received 11 am the next day)
Email From Customer:
“Received 11.00 am. Today.
Now all tucked into their bedding in the Worm Farm, layer 2.
They have, waiting for them on top of their bedding, fresh salad greens left over from our dinner last night.
Very Professional Service, Brian, and the Packaging was excellent.
Would recommend you, and your Products, to Anyone!
Again, thank you.

For BAIT WORMS:
YOU WILL NEED TO MAKE A BAIT BUCKET TO PUT THEM IN – Instructions on my website:
What to do right away when the worms arrive – https://thewormman.com.au/shipping-worms-what-to-do-when-they-arrive/
Making a bait worm bucket – https://thewormman.com.au/how-to-make-a-fishing-bait-bucket-for-worms/
Note – I send a piece of “chux” material with each bag of worms in the order, suitable for up to approx a 4-6 litre bucket.
Note – Bunnings sells these buckets (for $5), if you cant find one at home for free – they are very much the same as the buckets I give out to local customers. I cant send one in the package as they are too big to fit in the packages:
