I added the second story to my worm bin...a little late it turns out. Those worms just manage so well on their own that I can tend to forget that they DO need a little attending to once in a while. It turns out that I should have put the next layer on sooner - the bedding was too high and I had to remove some to get the container to sit properly. But that's OK - I think. I just put what I took out of the bottom, into the top. While I was at it I took a look at the very bottom layer which usually is the drainage area, but in my case my supplier recommended filling it with bedding to sop up the moisture. There was only one worm in that layer - but was he a huge guy! I scooped him up and added him to the others. He was getting fat and lazy down there with no competition. There didn't seem to be a lot of worms crawling around, so I'm wondering if my decision to feed them all over the container was a wise one. I'm going to go back to feeding in the center and see what happens.
Worms are amazing!
