Dave and Cindy - Thank you for your suggestions! I guess I DO need to divide my colony up into more colonies as I do realize that the current single bin is just not big enough to house my large colony.
Cindy - I do feed them all kinds of leaf litter but I have noticed that they really prefer the food scraps. When I don't have enough food scraps, I just sprinkle corn meal on the top of the soil/compost.
On a YouTube video, I saw where someone made a screen to shake out the castings to separate the worms. But to me, it looked like the castings were dry at that point. Not moist. By drying out the castings/compost, does that kill the beneficial bacteria and enzymes (which defeats the whole purpose of using worm compost)?
