EGG POWDER and WORM COMPOST YIELD

It's just amazing how much compost a bunch of little squiggly worms can create. Just two short months ago, I dumped about 100 worms into the compost bin, and voila! roughly nine liters of compost !


The white powder in the baggie is egg powder. It's created by taking egg shells, running them through my Magic Bullet blender. 12 egg shells created roughly 3 cups of powder. Powder is sprinkled over the worms/vegetables, and as the worms eat the vegetation, they also eat the egg powder. This works into their digestive tracts and helps "clean them out," creating more compost.

I made a couple YT videos about the egg powder:
