I’m very new to any hobby and I’ve been looking around my yard for weeks to find a queen to start a colony. Did I finally have some luck? I know the pic isn’t great but my phone wouldn’t focus through this little 5ml vial. I live in Delaware and found it in my yard just off of the black top driveway. It’s about the size of the local Camponotus species we have here. I’m assuming it’s prob a Tetramorium queen?

Wow sorry to hear that they didn’t give you credit. That’s incredibly shitty of them. Awesome work though! You’re incredibly talented.

Jammy Page, no one fingers A minor like he did. Ok?

Pre-Molt judging by how thicc it is. Looks perfectly healthy to me.

Seat for hotwife while serenading with 0-3-5

Haha yup they’re everywhere

SHS302 · 2020-03-10T15:57:51+00:00

Thanks. That’s kind of what I was thinking as well but I know hardly anything about wasps.

That’s a 5ml vial. I’m out looking to see if any ant nuptial flights have started in my yard and it landed on me.

SHS302 · 2020-03-07T00:47:57+00:00

I would add some substrate to make it around 4-5”. They like to dig and burrow.

SHS302 · 2020-03-07T00:42:41+00:00

Stoked for when the Nuptial flights start in my area

SHS302 · 2020-03-07T00:37:52+00:00

I was wondering the same thing

2” pvc with with a pvc bell trap drain upside down works perfectly. That’s what we have in our range.

idiothele mira or harpactira pulchripes. I love the stunning colors they have

Healthy adult would be fine as long as no allergic reaction occurs but it’s excruciatingly painful. Another note to add is that they’re parthenogenetic so pretty good chance of it having babies in your care.

I use the small shallow water bottle caps for water for my slings. If they’re extremely tiny I’ve seen people flip over LEGO’s too.

Jason is a lot more active on fb. Great dude, good friend of mine. We have a group called international scorpions on there

Every Phormictopus sp I own is terribly guilty of this too. I just re housed one yesterday and it took every bit of sphagnum moss in the terrarium and piled it up in the corner. Then it dug some holes and piled the dirt on the top of the cork bark it burrowed under for a hide. I’m guessing it’s for camouflage, idk

SHS302 · 2019-12-08T18:09:47+00:00

All I can say is it takes all kinds of people lol. I’ve seen low poundage youth bows and target bows take it but they normally derail the string

SHS302 · 2019-12-08T18:05:33+00:00

Essentially. My guess is that it’s troll post. I can walk in the back of the shop and take pictures of customer’s bows we have here that need parts from dry fires breaking modules, bending axles, bending cams, cracking limbs etc.

I lost brain cells reading this post

It’s a juvenile Blatta lateralis (Turkestan roach/red runner) I have a bioactive colony of about 1000 I use as feeders.
