Amazing Pictures Of Redworms & Cocoons

We are often asked about worm reproduction, and specifically what does a worm egg actually look like.

Well we came across some fabulous pictures last week of red worms and their cocoons in a wormery

so we thought that we should share them with you

In the pictures below you can clearly see the worm cocoons, little lemon shaped eggs, The cocoons start off as pale yellow eggs and eventually turn a darker brown colour . The darker the cocoon - the closer they are to hatching.

A huge thank you to Mary for allowing us to publish these photos, we hope that you have enjoyed looking at them as much as we have
