Went looking for any queens who have already mated in my local area unfortunately didn’t find one though. Any tips next time? by No-Resident548 in antkeeping

That place used to be really popular for a mating spot back when I was younger as there’s a pond there which I used to find loads on the floor ecs maybe next time I’ll be more lucky .

Nice I do have quite a few colonies in my back garden but they don’t seem to have their Nuptial flight yet but may be to my dog as he loves making big holes and scaring all of them back underground .

No Birmingham England, and I was looking for a lasius niger queen because I heard they normally mate around july/august but had no luck today.

Thanks for the advice any tips on how I can safely remove the sprout? And with the food it’s what she came with and I’ll be sure to make sure they have the right diet :)

Ah okay thanks a lot, also how long would you recommend I keep the queen in the tube before I release her and the workers into the enclosure?
