How much yeald should i expect off of 4.5 pints of worm castings spawned with 4.5 pints of collonized birdseed?
i would also like to know the yeuilds of of 1/2 pints of pure birdseed, pure whole brown rice and a combo, say 5 parts birdseed 3 parts whole brown rice (1/2 pint total). if anyone's got even a guess at the yeilds let me know, thanks.

How do you expect us to know your YIELDS? It takes time and care to get the maximum YIELDS. If you go about it without reading up all you need to.. you might have even lower YIELDS than a plain brf / verm setup

yeald=yield collonized=colonized
If grown with optimum conditions, that would yield LOTS! (Unless of course, you are in the dealing business and then i would guess there are never enough). For you and some friends to share, there would be plenty 'o fun for plenty 'o friends. If you grow 'em like shit, just waitin' for the fruits to get fucked up, you will probably yield a big fat ZERO. If you find yourself interested in the needs of the organism, you might out flush anyone here. I am not even going to toss a speculative number out there because it would be ridiculous to speculate. Just as the others have told you, you could yield zero to a whole bunch. The answer is in your hands...
Good Luck and Good Fun...Peace

Like any poop, your success has a lot to do w/ that the worms were fed and also how the poop was treated from the time of excretion 'til it hit your hobby room. Some castings *may* be treated w/ fungicides or have other additives that are helpful to plants, but harmful to fungi. Try to find bags that are labeled 'organic' for best results. With that spawn ratio (50/50), you should get quick colonization.
On yields... a half pint of birdseed might range from 5-15 grams dry fruit weight.
