Thanks. It's an Amazon Basics 18-sheet cross cut shredder I bought for shredding the cardboard boxes in which my orders arrive, including the shredder's box. Does a great job. Amazon Basics 18-Sheet Cross-Cut... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07R3FXLLQ?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

The plastic bins are 4-gallon Sterilite bins.They measure 18" L X 12-5/8"W X 7-1/8 H. Bought them at Walmart for around $7.50 USD each, back in March. They are now $8.98.https://www.walmart.com/ip/526354541 I drill holes in the bottoms & lids so they can crawl up to the next bin when I set it on top. Gonna keep 3 bins in rotation so that by the time the 3rd bin is filled, all the worms will have had plenty of time to hatch and move up from the bottom bin...no sorting or screening needed. The very bottom bin is a waste liquid catchment bin of the same type as the other 3 with a layer of nylon screen door screen laid on the lid to help the guys from accidentally falling through the drainage holes in the lid. It's fitted with a rain barrel bulkhead fitting drain also bought on Amazon for approximately $8.

The ones that stay in the bin are rewarded with a happy life of endless food & the privilege of reproducing. The worms are Red Wigglers bought from some farmer with a good rating on Ebay. They arrived in fine condition when I bought them in March. The standard estimate is that there's approximately 1,000 worms in a pound & that they double in number every 60 days. It's been about 4 months, so they've seemingly doubled twice, to 4,000 in number. It cost about $25 for the pound of 1,000 worms. When I go to Ebay order history & click the link, the seller's page can no longer be found. There are many more sellers available. I've decided to start another farm with the 10-gallon version, as it has a much larger surface area for a given volume, giving the food and the decomposing bacteria greater exposure to the air needed, accelerating the process. Also lower profile and less weight per area as I stack. https://www.walmart.com/ip/418481151
