Bassin Jack Posted August 17, 2004 Report Share Posted August 17, 2004 How maqny worms do you get out of a Gallon of plastic? Just a guess of how many and what kind you make. Also has anyone tried to caculate out what their cost per worm is? I cant wait start pouring! Thanks all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojo Posted August 17, 2004 Report Share Posted August 17, 2004 I've been getting 10 to 12 worms out of four ounces, depending on whether is a sinko or a slither. The worms I pour are 5" or 6" normally. That would be about 3 worms per ounce, times 128 ounces in a gallon = 384 worms per gallon. You would get more pouring smaller worms, less if pouring larger. So, if a gallon of Calhoun's is about $30 shipped, it costs you $30 / 384 = $ .078, or 8 cents per worm. This doesn't count color, glitter, salt, softener/hardener, stabilizer, molds, etc. And, of course, your mileage may vary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
