Breeder Bin Feeding
I've seen a couple different ideas about breeder bin feeding and I'm wondering what you do, what you've tried or your guesses as to which would be best.
Type 1: Just normal feeding in trenches with fruits and veggies, adding in some worm chow and possibly veggie powder.
Type 2: Only worm chow
Type 3: Top feeding. Fruits and veggies are blended into paste and fed in two lines across the top of the bin lengthwise, splitting the top into thirds.
The theory on type 3 is that first of all worms love that stuff and come across other worms more often as the wriggle around, under and through so they breed more often. No placing ads in Tinder needed. It's also really easy to see when you need to feed again.
Type 2 has a theory that due to the added calorie count, it makes the worms bigger - making bigger cocoons - if not this batch, then the next at least.
What are your thoughts? I'm about to have 4 bins with about 500 worms in each and I'd like to make them as cocoon profitable as possible! :)
