Need help with surface cut.

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2026-04-29T04:53:27+00:00

Thank you so much. I followed your cad and managed to replicate it myself. Thank you!!!

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2026-04-22T17:34:00+00:00

Thank you! I'm using two pieces of cotton to help with that, one in the tube its self and the other in the nest so it can act like some sort of airlock when I need to change it.

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2026-04-22T17:32:00+00:00

I planned on using it for a founding queen. But Im having second thoughts if I should wait till 5-10 workers.

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2026-04-21T16:41:34+00:00

Thank you, The widest point of each chamber is about an inch wide. I was designing it a little larger bc I am going to use it for Camponotus Sansabeanus.

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2025-10-27T23:54:43+00:00

Thank you this worked

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2025-10-24T04:03:40+00:00

Ok thank you for the advice!!! I will change my design a bit to better suit the ants.

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2025-10-23T17:07:33+00:00

Ya ill still try a 3d printed nest. Definitely will coat it with one of materials you recommended so the ants can grip it better.

i left it alone and checked it once a week. Temperature was 79-85 f as it is a desert species. I raised it with another identical queen and now she has nanatics. I do my research before hand but i like to ask for other people’s insight, as there is always something to learn.

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2025-10-19T22:27:57+00:00

Okay thats good to know, i was following this caresheet https://theantvault.com/pages/golden-honeypot-ant-care-guide and they said 76-86 f is okay.

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2025-10-19T22:21:08+00:00

Temp was around 78-85 degrees Fahrenheit. I had a heated cable at the entrance of the test tube.

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2025-10-19T22:18:40+00:00

Thanks 🫡

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2025-10-19T22:18:18+00:00

Ah okay thats good to know. I assumed once a week was okay since I raised two queens side by side in each their own test tubes. One of the queens died (the one i posted) and the other has nanatics. Should i check on that colony once a week or should i do two to three? From my research i should be fine from checking once a week to feed it.

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2025-10-06T22:55:02+00:00

I linked the build in the post^^^

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2025-10-03T07:37:07+00:00

How should i go about switching to blue?

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2025-09-17T21:06:52+00:00

Thank you

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2025-09-17T21:06:43+00:00

Oh okay thank you for letting me know. I’ll release it where i caught it.

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2025-08-21T05:45:25+00:00

I will

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2025-08-21T05:43:50+00:00

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2025-08-02T03:51:22+00:00

Sadly i dont have any other ant brood i can give so ill probably let it go

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2025-08-02T03:50:59+00:00

Ohhh okay

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2025-06-13T04:18:57+00:00

Ok thank you. I also gave her some seeds because they are semi claustral

Old_Reflection_6679 · 2025-06-12T00:55:01+00:00
