The BFL, or Reptiworms arrived in good odor. There was a smell of ammonia, but I would expect that if they are busy eaters. They were very active so I dumped them in the bucket and will wait to see what they make of the escape ramp. I should probably place the entire setup under a net to prevent birds from feasting on the mature larvae in the catch tray. The tray can easily be detached and put in my chicken coop. I plan to scatter some of the mature larvae in places where they can continue the process by turning into Black Soldier Flies and mating.
The worms arrived in the same post. They were wiggling nicely and had an earthy smell. I put most of them into the prepared tray of my Vermihut and scattered the remaining worms in the damper areas of my grow bins. I only put them in one bin each of the two sets of three bins. I expect they will migrate from bin to bin since the holes in the shower drains I used as connectors are easily large enough to let the red wrigglers pass.
