>Bean box question >How big should the box be? How do you go about making one? I have two types of bean boxes. One is a plastic tub about 15 in. by 18 in by 11 in. tall. It has no lid. Its got 2-3 inches of navy beans in it. The ferts get very excited in it and will bite hard when playing in it. I wear heavy leather gloves when play in it with them. The second is an "under bed" plactic box I picked up at Target. It's 18 x 36 x 6 inch high. It has a snap on lid which I cut a hole through and attached a 4 inch PVC elbow. It has 40 lbs of rice and a few real rocks. The ferts dig and nest in this box. I extended the PVC to connect to their cage so they can play in it while I'm at work. Some days it show no sign of use and other days I find 5 or 6 ferts sleeping in it. [Posted in FML issue 4019]
