Insect Lore Earthworm Nursery

Wednesday May 14, 2008
Earthworm NurseryAdmittedly, earthworms aren't my favorite creatures. You can imagine my relief when my brother-in-law volunteered to test the Insect Lore Earthworm Nursery out for me. My neighbor's kids (she has 3 boys) were super excited when they heard about the mini-project as well. So, while I elected to be a passive observer, they thoroughly enjoyed the whole earthworm growing process from start to finish.

To start, you have to buy the Earthworm nursery kit from Insect Lore. It comes with a plastic earthworm habitat which consists of an earthworm nursery and a hatching chamber. Included are accessories like a paint brush and forceps to lift up the cocoons. Enclosed is a mail in coupon by which you can order the earthworm cocoons. Simply follow the instructions and in no time you'll have a bunch of live earthworms! Here's the review of the Insect Lore Earthworm Nursery.
