Default wormery - feed them meat?



I have had a wormery for the last couple of years - very successful -
and I would recommend to anyone.

Up to now I have only put in vegetable matter and newspaper.

I have read that you can put "anything which has lived" in - (but not
onions and citrus).

I have made some chicken soup - I have binned the carcass and bones -
but what about the vegetable/meat "mush" that is left at the end of
the simmering process.

Give it to the worms?

Try a bit and see if they like it.


I've had my wormery for ten years or so, and I have fed soup to my


But not hot with a bread roll on the side?

worms, on the very odd occasion when there was some left, and it
did them no harm - but I've never fed them any meat on its own.
(Probably because we don't eat - or leave - meat very often?)
