12.11.13: Extraordinary Earthworms
We took a close look at two worm farms. Mrs
Hamblyn’s is a big black cylinder. Mrs
Edwards’ is a small green rectangular prism.
We opened the boxes up, and Mrs Caudwell gave
us some each.
There are different kinds of worms, and they
can be tiny or long.
People have worm farms to get the castings and
worm-wee to use as fertiliser on their gardens.
Worms eat decaying leaves and vegetables.
Worms are hermaphrodites. That means they are
both a boy and a girl at the same time.
Worms lay eggs.
Worms must stay damp or they will die.
Worms are cold-blooded.
They have no eyes, but they don’t like light.
Worms can replace a lost tail.
