Raising Red worms

[Dave]

What's a good food for raising red wigglers? I raise mine in a large
plastic tub. I have a huge crop that is reproducing with a lot of eggs in
the tub. My bedding consists of corn cob dust, and peat moss which I keep
moist. I've been mixing the bedding with Gravy Train dry dog food. I also
sprinkle yellow corn meal on top and lay folded newspaper on top and wet it
down. I am careful not to mix in the corn meal because it will sour and kill
all the worms as I have learned the hard way in the past. I would appreciate
knowing what you all, who raise their bait use for worm food. I am
primarily a Blue Gill, Crappie, and Channel Cat fisherman. Also, how do you
protect your worms from dying in the wintertime? I kept mine in our attached
garage which gets cold, but not freezing. A lot of them crawled out of the
tub and were spread all over the garage floor and died. Thanks a lot for
your information and help.
