Not many people know what is the meaning of hermaphrodites. Hermaphrodites means that one possesses both male and female organs. All worms are hermaphrodites. This is means you will only require two worms to breed and make many more babies.
Each mating partner produces a capsule (sometimes called a pod/cocoon) or egg. Two of the species mentioned in this blog are the red worms (tigers) and blue worms. Tigers always require two worms to reproduce. The blue worms wherever, can reproduce on their own. Some claim that they have never seen two blue worms coupling and it seems like the blues are permanently parthenogenetic.
This means that when a blue worms had reached sexual maturity, it will start to reproduce on its own. How amazing is that!! Unlike other worms, no time is wasted in pre-mating courtship or finding a mate of the same species etc. This is one of the main reasons the blue worms are such great breeders!! give them a try and the next thing you need to worry is to build another worm farm. As mentioned in the precious post, they are ferocious eaters and can be great composters.
