Finally built a worm box

[muddler6]

I saved the box, but abandoned the plan for now. I plan to now, keep it by the compost pile, and when I till the garden again, I will pick up as many as I can and put them in the bucket and feed them when I feed the compost pile and see how it goes.

Before anyone asks, that pile is in the shade most of the day, and I can tuck the box in a spot that will always be shaded.

I moved the worm box out to my finished compost pile, to keep it insulated from cold at night and heat on the hot days (not many of them yet). When I tilled the garden I gathered up a few dozen worms. So far so good. I add some of the stuff I take out to the working compost pile for them. My plan is to keep adding and in a couple months change out the bedding and food and put the worms back, if they all stay this time.
