@Allen2045 Yeah, my worm bin has 5 trays that stack on top of each other. I
stop feeding the bottom tray and within a few weeks it has almost no worms.
Then from that bottom tray I scoop out the remaining compost (worm
castings, etc.), and I add it to my garden, or to potted plants, or
occasionally I make compost tea.

OG123, Just a tip, make sure you microwave you eggshells for a couple
minutes to kill any bad germs. I do this and use an old coffee grinder too
turn the eggshells too almost a powder, much better for the worms. Thanks
for all your vids I really enjoy them. joe
