during the storms a few months ago, the lid of my chicken food bin blew off and all the food got wet. instead of tossing it, i dump about 30 lbs of it into my half full compost bin. i left it alone. recently, i topped the bin off with the bedding from my chicken coop. the very first pitchfork toss was moving! it was full of worms. i mixed in the bedding. a few days ago, tossed it again. i have millions.
i guess the chicken food really spiked the population. next year's garden is gonna rock!
