Thanks so much! And it's still only $100 if it's under 100 chickens, right?

I have an all-night event that is going to be very physically challenging from Friday night through Saturday, so I'm not sure how dead or not dead I may be on Sunday. If I'm alive, I'll be there! I'll bring some fertile eggs for the raffle, and possibly some BBS Ameraucana chicks.

Reply Crazy Huhn: I do breed meal worms for my chickens for about 5 years now. They are all grown organically on wheat bran from an organic farm in Idaho and organic veggies (mostly out of my own backyard). They have never been refrigerated, they are all alive and beautiful golden in color. The quality of the worms is appreciated by our local BYC members, but I also ship if requested (see BYC thread mealworm farming). I do sell them, but have also bartered them at our SD meet-ups for hatching eggs, delicious "Chef Glenn coffee", "AA chick" goat milk and goat milk soap, plants ....Please feel free to send me a PM with any other questions you might have or PM me your phone number and I will call you back.

Reply Crazy Huhn: Thank you so much for posting this. I know you were joking, but seriously, this is just another reason to breed my own worms: F.O.B. Shanghai: yuck

. I would never feed my animals anything from Shanghai. Those are bred on non-organic "who knows what". I do not think that customs would let you import live ones, but I would not even feed my chickens the dried version as those are treated with chemicals to make them more appealing for the chickens eye

or to give them a better shelf life. Anyways, I could go on and on, but we can continue the conversation on March 2. Looking forward to meet "old" and new SD backyardchickens people and will bring some San Diego grown wormies for your chickens to sample on.
BTW: I had one gentleman shipping 3,000 meal worms to the Philippines two years ago.... He wanted to start a meal worm farm over there.
