This is a compost bin with open bottom but no holes in the sides or top which I use to compost only kitchen scraps, shredded paper and shredded fallen leaves and it’s absolutely heaving with worms! They’re deep in the compost but also all up the sides and on the lid. I’m wondering why they do this, have they got enough oxygen? Are the numbers normal? They seem to be consuming what I put in incredibly quickly. For comparison, my other pallet-bin in pic 2 for garden waste breaks down very slowly in comparison (hard to keep damp enough I think).

Usually they come out like that if it’s too wet or too hot. That’s an insane amount of worms though lol. Maybe they are just running out of space.
Looks like it could use more browns too.
