This might seem crazy but, clocking in at 99.2 Decibels, the Water Boatman insect has a penis noise that is louder than a freight train when adjusted for size.

Red Worms Getting Ready To Become Composting Worms
Today is 12-14-2019, and it is 4 AM. The early bird may get the first worm, but the early worm farmer gets the worms fat so that the early bird gets fed. That was wordy.
Anyway, it is going to be warmer today, and we had a soaking rain last night, so we are opening our beds to check the worms and give them a good feeding, if needed, so that they can eat and then go back to bed when the cold hits again shortly.
These intermittent, cold weather feedings, allow us to check on our worms to ensure that pests have not invaded and that our worm herd is alive and well. The blanket of food will also heat a bit as it breaks down and that will help keep the worms warm enough to keep feeding and fattening so that the spring warmth will give them ample food supplies to grow and breed.
We feed them a mix of green and brown organic matter, so straw and alfalfa mixed with rabbit manure and frass from our mealworm and superworm operations. The worms love it and it heats well. 
We feed by placing a strip of food down the center of our beds but we are sure to leave the sides food free so that the worms can escape the food if is should sour or heat too much on warmer days.
We also provide our indoor breeder and hatching beds with a good sprinkling of Purina Worm Chow. We do this weekly to keep our indoor breeders and hatchlings happy and healthy.
It is now 4:06 AM and I have to get to work. Have a great weekend.
